چکیده
This review summarizes recent advances in the area of tribology and the challenges to achieve a molecular level understanding of friction and wear and makes specific recommendations towards attaining such a fundamental understanding. This document represents the results of a two-day workshop, sponsored by the U.S. National Science Foundation, at which participants were charged with defining the outstanding challenges in obtaining a fundamental understanding of friction and wear, thus assisting the National Science Foundation in the effective allocation of resources to address these challenges.

متن کاملTribological applications of biomaterials: an overview
Tribological research is the study of lubrication, friction, and wear. Tribology of biomaterials is to study how the materials work and fail. This will help us to produce better biomaterials. Tribology plays a very important role in improving the design and making successful biomaterials for medical purposes. Joints of human body, such as hip, knee, jaw, dental parts etc., all need to consider ...
متن کاملAn Investigation of the Fatigue Induced Failure Modes of Fiber/Elastomer ComDosites as Bearing Surfaces in Total HiD Joint Prosthesis
It is proposed to use elastomeric composites as artificial joint bearing surfaces to increase their fluid film lubrication and therefore reduce the number of failures which have been attributed to wear mechanisms. The fluid generated between the surfaces supports part of the load and prevents direct contact of the bearing surfaces. In order to obtain optimum elastohydrodynamic lubrication, elas...
متن کاملMechanical and Tribological Behavior of Aluminum Alloy LM13 Reinforced with Titanium Dioxide Metal Matrix Composites
In the present research work physical, mechanical and tribological behavior of Aluminum (Al) alloy LM13 reinforced with Nano-sized Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) particulates were fabricated, mechanical and tribological properties were investigated. The amount of nano TiO2 particulates in the composite was added from 0.5% to 2% in 0.5 weight percent (wt %) increments. The Al-LM13-TiO2 Metal Matrix Com...
