In this study, the influence of surface wettability (θ) and interfacial energy (γ) on the
coefficient of friction (f) of tribopair surfaces in aqueous environment was investigated using …

This study investigated the effect of hydrogel surface roughness on its sliding friction against
a solid substrate having modestly adhesive interaction with hydrogels under small normal …

This topical review focuses on applying the basics of the classical Coulomb–Amontons (CA)
law of friction to describe bioinspired articulating systems of extremely low values of …

The wettability of the articular surface of cartilage depends on the condition of its surface
active phospholipid overlay, which is structured as multi-bilayer. Based on a hypothesis that …

This work presents a conceptual framework as to how a deficit in the synovial-fluid content,
exemplified by hyaluronan or any other amphiphilic species, is capable of decisively altering …

The surface of an articular cartilage, coated with phospholipid (PL) bilayers, plays an
important role in its lubrication and movement. Intact (normal) and depleted surfaces of the …

The corrosive behaviors and tribological performances were investigated for chromium
doped graphite-like carbon films in variable pH solutions. Results showed that the as …

This study aims to determine the effect of progressive loss of the surface active
phospholipids on the characteristics, and hence tribological function of articular cartilage. In …

This paper presents a mini-review of investigations performed by the authors in the field of
hydrodynamic theory of lubrication of biological systems and synthetic processing of results …

Waste lubricant oil (WLO) which is a spent oil from vehicles, and machinery is often
incinerated or landfilled, leading to environmental pollution and heavy metal …
