Ice formation affects the performance of many industrial components, including aircraft wings, spacecraft, and power transmission cables. In particular, ice build-up on airplane components increases drag fuel consumption. A large number studies have been carried out to reduce adhesion by developing passive methods such as icephobic coatings active removal approaches mechanical vibrations or che...

Manufacturing processes are usually energy intensive, contributing to the global carbon dioxide emissions. Deep Drawing is one of most common types sheet metal forming with great potential for efficiency improvement. In this paper, optimised combination molybdenum disulphide (MoS 2 ) and graphite proposed as a solid lubricant reduce punching force consumption deep drawing process. Different mix...

Many researches are focused on the tribological performances of pure vegetable oil in order to replace conventional mineral engine oils. This work investigates influence local moringa (noted VO) lubricants formed from a blend dodecane and graphite particles at ambient temperature. In first part, reduction about 50% friction properties is observed when adding small amounts (VO), which intended b...

We numerically study two-component capillary bridges formed when a liquid droplet is placed in between two liquid-infused surfaces (LIS). In contrast to commonly studied one-component on noninfused solid surfaces, can exhibit range of different morphologies where the directly contact with two, one, or none LIS substrates. addition, may lose stability compressed due envelopment by lubricant. als...

Lactose, one of the most commonly used fillers in solid dosage formulations, is well known for producing tablets with high mechanical strength. However, its usage has been eroded by some relatively recent concerns, such as Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy BSE, Variant Creutzfeldt-Jacob Disease (vCJD), and lactose intolerance. These concerns have led some formulators to evaluate other excipients...
