Aquantitative relationship is demonstrated between the coefficient of static friction and the milling process parameters. Different levels of surface roughness are obtained by varying the spindle speed, depth of cut and feed which is followed by measurement of surface roughness using stylus profile meter. The corresponding coefficients of static friction are measured for all specimens using inc...

Local chain structure and local environment play an important role in the dynamics of polymer chains in miscible blends. In general, the friction coefficients that describe the segmental dynamics of the two components in a blend differ from each other and from those of the pure melts. In this work, we investigate polymer blend dynamics with Monte Carlo simulations of a generalized bond fluctuat...

the friction properties of granular materials play an important role in the determination of specifications for designing hoppers, transporting passages, dryers, silos and machines through which grain flows. in this study, the angle of repose and internal friction coefficient were determined for three common wheat varieties (sardary, gaspard and saysoter) at four moisture contents (12, 15, 18, ...

This paper presents a method for estimating Coulomb and viscous friction coefficients from responses of a harmonically excited dual-damped oscillator with linear stiffness. The identification method is based on existing analytical solutions of non-sticking responses excited near resonance. The method is applicable if the damping ratio of viscous component can be considered small. The Coulomb an...

Carbon-fiber-reinforced silicon carbide (C/C-SiC) composite is widely used as a friction material owing to its good performance, even though it is more expensive than metallic materials. The light C/C-SiC composite is an ideal candidate for weight reduction of frictional parts. In this study, the friction and wear behavior of C/C-SiC composite was assessed using a ball-on-disk friction tester u...

Friction between crystalline bodies is described in a model that unifies elements of dislocation drag, contact mechanics, and interface theory. An analytic expression for the friction force between solids suggests that dislocation drag accounts for many of the observed phenomena related to solid–solid sliding. Included in this approach are strong arguments for agreement with friction dependence...

The transmission of stress is analysed for static periodic arrays of rigid grains, with perfect and zero friction. For minimal coordination number (which is sensitive to friction , sphericity and dimensionality), the stress distribution is soluble without reference to the corresponding displacement fields. In non-degenerate cases, the constitutive equations are found to be simple linear in the ...
