Contact electrification and the triboelectric effect are complex processes for mechanical-to-electrical energy conversion, particularly highly deformable polymers. While generating relatively low power density, contact can occur at contact-separation interface between nearly any two polymer surfaces. This ubiquitousness of surfaces enables to be an important phenomenon understand conversion har...

Abstract In this paper the generalized model of contact two plan bodies that roll and slide or just is presented. The analytical solution correct distribution pressure in realized presence normal compressive force, which realizes contact, as well force pair a tangential force. This can be used on sprocket teeth due to sliding rolling itself gear pole. results obtained have been experimentally c...

PURPOSE To assess the use of multipurpose lens care products via an online survey conducted among soft contact lens (SCL) wearers in Japan. METHODS The subjects were 1000 men and women aged 15-44 years who reported that they cleaned their SCL by using multipurpose solution at least twice a week. Via the internet, they were asked questions about SCL care, the use of a rubbing step when cleanin...
