Mechanisms of dynamic force microscopy on polyvinyl alcohol: region-specific non-contact and intermittent contact regimes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dynamic force microscopy (DFM) phase signals were studied using heterogeneous films of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The phase was measured as a function of distance and drive frequency over regions of the film with different dissipative properties. When driving below the free resonance frequency at moderate amplitudes, the tip—sample interaction jumps between non-contact and intermittent contact regimes, giving rise to large, region-specific changes in phase within a single image. Amplitude damping largely determines the imaging regime. Resistance to intermittent contact can be overcome by selecting larger drive amplitudes at drive frequencies below the free resonance. Phase contrast then is related primarily to differences in viscoelastic loss. Upon nearing quasistatic contact, viscoelastic loss can produce a transition from intermittent contact to non-contact as the amplitude is heavily damped. ( 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights

Contrasting static-to-kinetic friction transitions on layers of an autophobically dewetted polymer film using Fourier-analyzed shear modulation force microscopy
Fourier analysis of oscillating forces at a laterally modulated tip provides new insight into static-to-kinetic friction transitions on ultrathin polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films. In addition to contrast in sliding friction, layers of autophobically dewetted PVA films exhibit remarkable contrast in the transition from static to kinetic friction as derived from spatially resolved Fourier analysis. ...

متن کاملDynamic Meshing Characteristics of Elliptic Cylinder Gear Based on Tooth Contact Analysis
As the most important working area of gear, teeth play the role of transmitting load and power. Tooth line and tooth profile are the two main characteristics of the tooth surface, which affect the shape of the tooth surface, tooth meshing characteristics and contact characteristics. Taking the elliptical cylinder gear pair in the reversing device of a new type of drum pumping unit as the resear...
متن کاملDynamic Behavior Analysis of a Planar Four-bar Linkage with Multiple Clearances Joint
In practice, clearances in the joints are inevitable due to tolerances, and defects arising from design and manufacturing. In the presence of clearance at a joint, a mechanism gains some additional, uncontrollable degrees of freedom which are the source of error. Moreover, joints undergo wear and backlashes and so cannot be used in precision mechanisms. In this study, the dynamic behaviour of ...
