Sustainability has become of paramount importance, as evidenced by the increasing
number of norms and regulations concerning various sectors. Due to its intrinsic trans …

Recently, various slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) have been fabricated for
the protection of various materials. However, these SLIPSs are limited by their underlying …

The wear fatigue of slewing bearings at the contact areas of raceways (AISI 4140 steel (AS))
and rollers (AISI 52100 steel) seriously reduces the service life of equipment. AS-SnAgCu …

Friction at the blank-die contact influences material flow, formability, and product surface
quality in processes like deep drawing. Surface modification of the dies by laser texturing is …

For investigating the mechanism of micro dimples on the stick-slip of guideway, the
connection between the lubrication state and the system stability was established to …

This paper presents the findings of an experimental study performed for exploring and
improving the tribodynamic performance behaviours of a thrust ball bearing employing …

A biomimetic microtexture was constructed on the surface of gear alloys, and the stress
distribution and oil film pressure of the textured tooth surface were evaluated by numerical …

The piston ring and liner interface is a major source of friction loss in automotive combustion
engines. This loss can be mitigated by learning from surfaces from nature that manipulate …

In this study, a composite process consisting of laser surface texture imitating fish scale
shapes and plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) was used on the surface of aluminum alloy …

Inspired by rhombic textures on shark skin surface, this paper designs bionic micro-textures
filled by solid lubricants SnAgCu and Ti3C2TX to improve the tribological properties of …
