A multi-physics electrical contact model is developed to predict the contact pressure,
temperature, and electric current density (ECD) distributions on the contact surface. The …

Thermoelectric films linked to elastic substrates are typical engineering structures and have
applications in heat recovery systems. This article uses the nonlocal heat conduction and …

The MoS 2-doped graphite/copper self-lubricating composites (Gr-MoS 2/Cu) were
synthesized by a rapid microwave sintering procedure. In this paper, the thermal properties …

This paper investigates the frictionless contact problem of a functionally graded
thermoelectric (FGTE) layered half-plane under the action of a rigid flat punch. The punch is …

High performance, high stretchability and high strength are the urgent demands for the
wearable thermoelectric generators. This paper proposes a novel idea of the stretchable …

This article presents analytical solution procedures for moving Hertzian contact problems
involving multi-layer and functionally graded coatings. A frictional circular punch is assumed …

The three-dimensional tractive rolling contact analysis of functionally graded coating-
substrate systems is conducted. The surface frictional anisotropy is described by Coulomb's …

Thermoelectric materials can harvest heat and turn it into electricity and vice versa, which
could lead to more cost-effective devices and appliances. This article investigates the …

In this study, the plane thermoelastic frictional contact problem between a magneto-electro-
elastic (MEE) layer and a rigid cylindrical or flat punch is discussed. Punches are assumed …

In this study, the continuous contact problem of thermoelectric layer resting on a rigid
substrate and loaded by a rigid punch is examined. Considering the body force of the …
