The Squeaks in Your Sneaks: Vibrations at the Shoe-surface Interface
نویسندگان
چکیده
Contact between rubber-soled shoes and indoor sports surfaces commonly results in brief, high-pitched “squeaks” (Fig. 1). The classical Amontons-Coulomb friction paradigm assumed by most slip-resistance research does not accommodate vibration or sound generation. Consequently, an examination of this phenomenon offers the possibility of novel insights into the mechanics of shoe-surface interaction.

Peak torque and rotational stiffness developed at the shoe-surface interface: the effect of shoe type and playing surface.
BACKGROUND Shoe-surface interactions have been implicated in the high number of noncontact knee injuries suffered by athletes at all levels. PURPOSE To examine shoe-surface interactions on newer field designs and compare these with more traditional shoe-surface combinations. The peak torque and rotational stiffness (the rate at which torque is developed under rotation) were determined. STUD...
متن کاملInvestigating the Ultrasonic Assistance in the Tube Hydroforming Process
The purpose of introducing ultrasonic vibrations in the tube hydroforming process is to create more formability by obtaining a lower corner radius, improve thickness distribution of the wall and provide good tribological conditions at the tube and the die interface. Vibrations imposed on the die create alternating gaps which improve the formability in the tube hydroforming process in the presen...
متن کاملResponse Spectra of Structures under Subway Induced Vibrations
Passing underground trains induce vibrations transmitted to the ground surface and the nearby structures. Ordinarily, these vibrations do not result in structural damage but can harm nonstructural elements and disturb the occupants. These effects are more pronounced when evaluating buildings like hospitals, laboratories, museums, etc., and their assessment is an important design need. To respon...

In this investigation, the material removal rate, tool wear rate and surface integrity obtained by EDM, ultrasonic vibrations assisted EDM and magnetic field assisted EDM were studied and compared with together to show the quality of the effects of applying each of ultrasonic vibrations to tool and magnetic field around gap distance of EDM process on material removal rate, tool wear rate, and s...
متن کاملThe effect of toe only rocker shoe 10 and 15 degree compared to control shoe on plantar pressure, force and surface in healthy older adult
Objective: The aim of present study was to investigate the effect of toe only rocker with an angle of 10 and 15 degrees on the distribution of plantar pressure in healthy elderly people. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the plantar pressure of the foot and to remove excessive pressure from different parts of the plantar surface of the foot in order to maintain the independence and func...
