Influence of Viscous Lubricant on Nucleation and Propagation of Frictional Ruptures

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, François Xavier Thibault Passelègue, Federica Paglialunga

Fluids are pervasive in the Earth's crust and saturate fractures and faults. The combination of fluids and gouge layers developing along faults can generate fluids of different viscosities. Such viscous fluids were found to influence the reactivation, fric ...

Effect of Short Reducing Pulses on the Dynamic Structure, Activity, and Stability of Pd/Al2O3 for Wet Lean Methane Oxidation

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri

Natural gas is a suitable alternative to gasoline and diesel fuels to decrease the carbon footprint of the mobility and energy sectors. Unburnt CH4 is typically removed from the exhaust using palladium-based catalysts, which suffer from thermal deactivatio ...

Film thickness distribution in gravity-driven pancake-shaped droplets rising in a Hele-Shaw cell

François Gallaire, Gioele Mariano Nicolò Balestra, Nicolas Igor Jacques Kofman, Lailai Zhu, Isha Shukla

We study here experimentally, numerically and using a lubrication approach, the shape, velocity and lubrication film thickness distribution of a droplet rising in a vertical Hele-Shaw cell. The droplet is surrounded by a stationary immiscible fluid and mov ...

Polyelectrolytes induce water-water correlations that result in dramatic viscosity changes and nuclear quantum effects

Sylvie Roke, Jan Dedic, Halil Ibrahim Okur

Ions interact with water via short-ranged ion-dipole interactions. Recently, an additional unexpected long-ranged interaction was found: The total electric field of ions influences water-water correlations over tens of hydration shells, leading to the Jone ...

Miniaturized tube fixed plug drawing: determination of the friction coefficients and drawing limit of 316 LVM stainless steel

Jean-Marie Drezet, Stefano Mischler, Nicolas Paul Henry Chobaut, Bastien De Marco, Vance Nguyen, Stéphane Dobler

Tube drawing with a ﬁxed plug is investigated experimentally and numerically in order to optimise an industrial pass sequence. Tube drawings are performed on a laboratory drawing bench equipped with force, displacement and temperature sensors. The drawing ...

A comparative study of shock capturing models for the discontinuous Galerkin method

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven

Dealing with strong shocks while retaining numerical dissipation of reasonably low level has been one of the major challenges for high order methods like discontinuous Galerkin. In the literature, various shock capturing models have been designed based on ...

Effect of surface films on tribologically induced metallurgical transformations of steel in oil lubricated contacts

Stefano Mischler, Marco Cantoni, Shoufan Cao

This study was initiated with the aim to assess the influence of boundary films on the tribologically induced metallurgical transformations and deformations of metals in lubricated contacts and their effect on wear. For this, the tribological behavior of a ...

Tribology of surface-grafted polymer brushes

Harm-Anton Klok, Piotr Mocny

Surface-grafted polymer brushes are a very attractive class of boundary lubricants. This article presents an overview of the tribological properties of surface-attached synthetic polymers. After a brief review of some mechanistic considerations and a discu ...

Hydrophobic Meshes for Oil Spill Recovery Devices

Francesco Stellacci

Widespread use of petrochemicals often leads to accidental releases in aquatic environments, occasionally with disastrous results. We have developed a hydrophobic and oleophilic mesh that separates oil from water continuously in situ via capillary action, ...

Contactless rotational concentric microviscometer

Peter Ryser, Eric Meurville, Sigfrid Straessler, Emeric Grandjean

We investigated the feasibility of a concentric rotational microviscometer which is actuated remotely. This type of sensor might find application in vivo as a passive implant. The heart of the sensor is a cylindrical rotor, actuated from a distance of up t ...
