Effects of Vanadium Oxide Nanoparticles on Friction and Wear Reduction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this research, rheological and tribological performance of additive V2O5 nanoparticles in a light mineral oil has been investigated. For rheological performance, the addition of 0.2 wt. % V2O5 could reduce the viscosity ...
Design and Synthesis of a Superhydrophobic PVDF Based Composite
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The ability to design, control, and synthesize a material surface with superhydrophobicity is of great interests in many engineering applications. Here, we report a costeffective process to fabricate poly(vinylidene fluoride) ...
Effects of Microstructure of Quasicrystal Alloys on Their Mechanical and Tribological Performance
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The current design of materials against wear considers hardness as the sole material property. As a result, the brittleness associated with increased hardness leads to severe damage. The purpose of this research is to ...
