Modeling the origins of adhesive wear across scales

Friction and wear occur at every interface between solid materials.In the design of mechanical devices, it is desirable to be able to quantify and control the amount of friction and wear, as well as predict their evolution with time. ``Tribology'' is the s ...

Improved pivot-slide model of the motion of a curling rock

Laurent De Schoulepnikoff

The pivot-slide model (Shegelski and Lozowski) successfully predicts the slide and curl distances of a curling rock. However, in this model, there is no dependence of the curl distance on the initial velocity, because the ratio between the pivot to sliding ...

The simulation and classification of contact clusters between rough surfaces

Shijun Yin

The contact area of rough surfaces has a great influence on many mechanical process in tribology. In this report, we used the simulation method to study the contact area between two rough surfaces and its evolution when sliding. We generated artificial sel ...

Microscale physico-chemical interactions between hydrodynamically confined liquids and immersed biological surfaces

David Philipp Taylor

In contrast to conventional microfluidics, where liquids are typically manipulated within closed channels, open-space microfluidics has emerged as a new class of techniques that are well suited for ver-satile interaction with biological substrates. In part ...

Fractal surfaces in adhesive wear processes.

Jean-François Molinari, Enrico Milanese, Ramin Aghababaei, Tobias Brink

Wear of materials plays a key role in the durability of manifactured objects and it has thus an economical importance in our society. In spite of the efforts, a unified picture of the underlying physics of the phenomenon is still far from being reached, be ...

Improving Circuit Mapping Performance Through MIG-based Synthesis for Carry Chains

Giovanni De Micheli, Paolo Ienne, Mathias Soeken, Grace Zgheib, Pierre-Emmanuel Julien Marc Gaillardon, Luca Gaetano Amarù, Xifan Tang, Ana Petkovska, Zhufei Chu

Hard-wired carry chains in FPGAs are designed to improve efficiency of important arithmetic primitives. Although they are proven to be effective for arithmetic-rich functions, there are very few studies on the optimization opportunities of carry chains for ...

Generalized Virasoro algebra: left-symmetry and related algebraic and hydrodynamic properties

Tudor Ratiu

Motivated by the work of Kupershmidt (J. Nonlin. Math. Phys. 6 (1998), 222 -245) we discuss the occurrence of left symmetry in a generalized Virasoro algebra. The multiplication rule is defined, which is necessary and sufficient for this algebra to be quas ...

A Compressible Scaffold for Minimally Invasive Delivery of Large Intact Neuronal Networks

Philippe Renaud, Georg Fantner, Thomas Michael Braschler, Patrick Fraering, Oliver Peric, Amélie Barbara Hildegarde Béduer, Sébastien Mosser, Sidi Ahmed Bencherif

Millimeter to centimeter-sized injectable neural scaffolds based on macroporous cryogels are presented. The polymer-scaffolds are made from alginate and carboxymethyl-cellulose by a novel simple one-pot cryosynthesis. They allow surgical sterility by means ...

Molecular dynamics nano-scratching of aluminium: a novel quantitative energy-based analysis method

Jean-François Molinari, Till Junge

Atomistic models for friction suffer from the severe length- and time-scale restrictions of molecular dynamics. Even when they yield good qualitative results, it is difficult to draw meaningful quantitative conclusions from them. In this paper, a novel app ...

Adaptive Control: Algorithms, Analysis and Applications

Alireza Karimi

Adaptive Control (second edition) shows how a desired level of system performance can be maintained automatically and in real time, even when process or disturbance parameters are unknown and variable. It is a coherent exposition of the many aspects of thi ...
