RISOn the Indentation of a Transversely Isotropic Half-Space With Application to Thin Solid Lubricant Films
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this investigation, the contact between a model rigid ellipsoidal asperity and the surface of an oriented solid lubricant film has been simulated using an analysis developed previously for ...
Polymer/Metal Conformal Sliding Contact With Forced Convective Cooling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A model for predicting the onset of severe wear for a conformal polymer/metal sliding contact with forced convective cooling has been developed. Finite difference techniques were used for the ...

The Unlubricated Sliding Wear Behavior of Polyetheretherketone Against Smooth Mild-Steel Counterfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this investigation, the sliding wear of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) against smooth (polished) and slightly roughened mild-steel counterfaces was studied under dry, lightly-loaded conditions. In ...
Sliding Friction and Heat Generation in Pressurized U-Cup Seals Under Low-Speed Reciprocating Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A test apparatus was designed and constructed to investigate the friction and heat generation characteristics of sliding polymeric U-cup seals used in high-pressure nitrogen gas springs. Tests ...
The Penn State Safety Floor: Part I—Design Parameters Associated With Walking Deflections
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new flooring system has been developed to reduce peak impact forces to the hips when humans fall. The new safety floor is designed to remain relatively rigid under normal walking conditions, ...
The Penn State Safety Floor: Part II—Reduction of Fall-Related Peak Impact Forces on the Femur
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The goal of this study was to develop and validate a finite element model (FEM) for use in the design of a flooring system that would provide a stable walking surface during normal locomotion ...
