The dynamics of turbine blades, incorporating friction damping systems, represent a critical area in ensuring the operational reliability and longevity of modern aero-engines and power generation ...

We conducted experiments in which steel and silicon or quartz are clamped together. Even with the smallest tangential forces we could apply, we always found reproducible sliding motions on the ...

The study of tribology, the science of friction, wear and lubrication, has increasingly benefitted from advances in molecular dynamics simulations, providing detailed atomistic insights into the ...

Friction behavior is one of the most critical factors in brake system design and performance. For up-front design and system modeling it is desirable to be able to describe a lining's frictional ...

Businesses today face mounting pressure to deliver frictionless customer experiences while maintaining robust fraud prevention and security measures. Traditional verification methods often force ...

Catalysts play an indispensable role in modern manufacturing. More than 80% of all manufactured products, from ...

The recent closure of the car parts factory Friction Dynamics provided a sharp twist in a saga that has seen the company become the focus of the UK's longest-running strike. Since then a new entity ...
