Abstract:
Nine soccer balls were tested for their friction against a leather sheet, using a force plate. An average normal force of 63.6 N was applied and the movement of the ball had an average velocity of 15 mm/s. Each test was repeated 15 times and the average Coefficient of Friction (COF) was reported. The following results were obtained: Jabulani (COF: 0.62 ± 0.05); Fracas (COF: 0.41 ± 0.01); Ordem 3 (COF: 0.63 ± 0.02); Teamgeist (COF: 0.38 ± 0.01); Brazuca (COF: 0.45 ± 0.01); Kopanya (COF: 0.39 ± 0.01); React (COF: 0.37 ± 0.01); Finale 15 (COF: 0.39 ± 0.06); Vintage T-panel leather ball (COF: 0.41

Abstract:
The coefficient of friction (COF) is one of the core factors in the evaluation of brake system performance. It is challenging to predict the COF, since it is strongly influenced by several parameters such as contact pressure (p), slip rate (v) and temperature (T) that depend on the driving conditions. There is a need for better models to describe how the brake friction varies under different driving conditions. The purpose of this research is to study the possibility of using 3D friction pvT-maps to estimate the COF of a disc brake system under different driving conditions. The 3D friction pvT

Mechanical testers have commonly been used to measure the frictional properties of socks. However, the friction values may be susceptible to the level of stretchiness of tested fabrics or human variability. Thus, the aim of this study was to propose a novel method that enables friction measurement of socks in a sock-wearing condition with less human variability effects. Five socks with different frictional properties were chosen.

The coefficient of friction (COF) is an important parameter for mechanical engineers to consider when designing frictional connections. Previous work has shown that a surface microstructuring of the harder friction partner leads to a significant increase in the COF. However, the impact of the changes in the tribological system on the COF are not known in detail. In this study, the tribological influence factors such as the nominal surface pressure, the material pairing, lubrication, and the surface properties of the counterbody are investigated.

The coefficient of friction (COF) of metals is usually high, primarily because frictional contacts induce plastic deformation underneath the wear surface, resulting in surface roughening and formation of delaminating tribolayers. Lowering the COF of metals is crucial for improving the reliability and efficiency of metal contacts in engineering applications but is technically challenging. Refining the metals’ grains to nanoscale cannot reduce dry-sliding COFs, although their hardness may be elevated many times.

The coefficient of friction (CoF) is one of the most important parameters for the contact between the wheel and the rail. Accurate estimation or measurement of the CoF has a very important role, both in terms of modeling the train dynamics and in terms of reducing operational costs in the long-term. For ease of implementation, since the nature of the wheel-rail contact dynamics is very complex, the assumption of a constant CoF is still used in most theoretical studies. Nevertheless, experimental work indicates that the CoF depends on dynamic changes in various wheel-rail conditions, like slidi

Abstract:
A white layer on a machined surface is often produced at abusive machining conditions. However, the effect of white layer on frictional and wear performance has received little attention. This study has shown that the existence of a turned white layer slightly decreases the coefficient of friction (COF), while a ground white layer significantly increases COF at dry conditions. At lubricated conditions, the turned white layer only slightly increases COF while the ground white layer slightly reduces it. The third body wear debris may act as solid lubricants leading to reduced friction.

As the grain size was decreased to the nanometer size, a reduction of about 18% was observed in the peak value of coefficient of friction (COF), but the steady-state COF remained almost unchanged.

Abstract:
The coefficient of friction (CoF) is one of the most important parameters for characterizing the contact between the wheel and the rail. The assumption of a constant CoF is still used in most theoretical studies, although experimental work indicates that the CoF depends on material and dynamic parameters. In the real world, accurate estimation of the CoF is not simple due to various uncertainties. In this paper we present a new 3D nonlinear dry CoF model at the wheel-rail contact. In addition, a stochastic analysis using the polynomial chaos theory is performed with the CoF model. The maximum

"Numerical Study on the Effects of Coefficient of Friction to the Dynamic Sliding Contact between Bearing and Talar Components of Metal on Polymer Total Ankle Replacement Implants."

Abstract:
Coefficient of friction (cof) is an important variable when dealing with con-tact between mechanical parts. It depends on various tribological variables and the value can be determined only by experiments. Cof correlates with the wear of material and this is a severe problem in biomedical engineering. This research numerically studied the effects of cof between talar and bear-ing in the total ankle replacement (TAR) implants. The aim is to evaluate the contact situations affected by cof. The TAR models consist of cobalt chrome (CoCr) alloy and ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE)

Abstract:
The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) completed a total of 25 high friction surface treatment (HFST) projects across the state in 2018. This research study attempted to investigate the durability and performance of HFST in terms of its HFST-pavement system integrity and surface friction performance. Laboratory tests were conducted to determine the physical and mechanical properties of epoxy-bauxite mortar. Field inspections were carried out to identify site conditions and common early HFST distresses. Cyclic loading test and finite element method (FEM) analysis were performed to eva

Abstract:
This report presents local convective boiling heat transfer and Fanning friction factor measurements in a micro-fin tube for R134a and two possible low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant replacements for R134a: R1234yf and R450A. Test section heating was achieved with water in either counterflow or in parallel flow with the test refrigerant to provide for a range of heat fluxes for each thermodynamic quality. An existing correlation from the literature for single and multi-component mixtures was shown to not satisfactorily predict the convective boiling measurements for flow qualities

Abstract:
In contrast to conventional powertrains from internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEV), the tribological performance of powertrains of electric vehicles (EVs) must be further evaluated by considering new critical operating conditions such as electrical environments. The operation of any type of electric motor produces shaft voltages and currents due to various hardware configurations and factors. Furthermore, the common application of inverters intensifies this problem. It has been reported that the induced shaft voltages and currents can cause premature failure problems in tribological compo

EFFECT OF RANDOM PRE-STRESSED FRICTION LOSS ON THE PERFORMANCE OF A SUSPEN-DOME STRUCTURE. The Hong Kong Institute of Steel Construction, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.18057/ijasc.2022.18.1.5.

Full text
Abstract:
The key to the high-efficiency performance of the suspen-dome structure is to apply the pre-stressed design value to the structure accurately. However, engineering practice has found that the use of tensioning hoop cables to apply the pre-stress will produce noticeable pre-stressed friction loss (PFL), which significantly affects the safety performance of the structure. In this paper, based on a 1:10 scaled-down experiment model of a suspen-dome structure with rolling cable-strut joint installed, the random PFL (RPFL) effect of the suspen-dome on structure performance was analyzed through a pr
