It is well known that carbon fiber (CF) reinforced PEEK (polyether‐ether‐ketone)(defined as
“PEEK/CF”) composites have excellent properties and have been widely used in diverse …

The polyimide (PI)/graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite films were synthesized by situ
polymerization and their tribological behaviors under dry friction, pure water lubrication and …

Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) is a widely used material for friction pairs due to its excellent
mechanical strength, good wear resistance, and chemical inertness. However, some …

The purpose of this paper is to provide an efficient method for determining the stiffness
coefficients of hydrodynamic plain journal bearings lubricated by water. In addition to the …
