Lubrication Forces in Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) Melts
… room temperature were studied by measurement of lubrication forces using an Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) colloidal force probe. A glass probe was driven toward a glass plate at piezo drive rates in the range of 12 – 120 μm/s, which produced shear rates up to ~10⁴ s⁻¹. The forces on the probe and …

Shear Thickening In Dense Bidisperse Suspensions By Dynamic Simulation
… particles. This model accounts for short-range lubrication forces, frictional interaction, and repulsion between particles and implements the frictional transition scenario described above.</p> <p>Using the results of the simulations, we investigate the effect of the size ratio of large to small …

Curved beam based model for piston-ring designs in internal combustion engines
… was already developed but does not consider the lubrication sub-models, the tip gap effects and the characterization of the ring free shape based on any final closed shape. In this work, three numerical curved beam based models were developed to study the performance of the piston ring-pack. The …
