Sensors provide real-time, non-contact temperature data during machining and welding, improving accuracy and efficiency. The technology is adaptable for friction stir welding, enabling precise thermal ...

Our friends at Friction Facts are at it again, this time with a new test fixture to measure the friction generated by bottom brackets. In this round, Friction Facts tested 35 different models from ...

COLUMBUS, Ohio – An engineer at Ohio State University recently demonstrated the world's first method for directly measuring friction between tiny microelectromechanical-system (MEMS) parts. Using an ...

Drivetrain products like ceramic bearings that promise lower mechanical friction and higher speeds have been hyped in recent years, but skeptics say drivetrains are already efficient, so any gains ...

“Networks of interconnected filaments are everywhere in biological and bioengineered systems, such as connective tissues, spider webs, and scaffolds for tissue growth, as well as consumer products, ...

Results of measuring the modulus and internal friction spectrum of TC4 titanium alloy from room temperature to 1200 ⁰ C using the new DMA. (IMAGE) Peking University ...

Topological insulators are innovative materials that conduct electricity on the surface, but act as insulators on the inside. Physicists have begun investigating how they react to friction. Their ...
