Abstract: A Frictionally constrained condition implies dependence of friction force on tangential displacement amplitude. The condition may occur due to chemical, physical, and/or mechanical interaction between the contacting surfaces. ...

Abstract: We show that coppermatrix composites that contain 20 vol. % of an in situ processed, polymerderived, ceramic phase constituted from SiCN have unusual frictionandwear properties. They show negligible wear despite a coefficient ...

Abstract: Ti-6Al-4V pins were slid against SS316L disks in pin-on-disk arrangement using pins of different diameters; with the contact pressure maintained the same for all experiments under ambient and vacuum conditions. Characterization ...

Abstract: Cutting fluids are crucial to machining, providing essential lubrication and thermal management during the process. Commercial Cutting Fluids (CCF) are generally based on mineral oils, with emulsifiers and additives that ...

Abstract: Obtaining fully dense products with high strength in one step at room temperature by powder metallurgy (PM) is generally not possible. However, doing so would reduce manufacturing and energy costs substantially. In this ...
