...Peipei Feng; Pietro Borghesani; Wade A. Smith; Robert B. Randall; Zhongxiao Peng Acoustic emission (AE) techniques play a key role in machine condition monitoring and wear/fault diagnosis. Understanding the impact of friction and wear on the generation of AE signals is essential to building...

...Bharat Bhushan; Shaobiao Cai Adhesion, friction/stiction, and wear are among the main issues in various commercial applications, including magnetic storage devices, microelectromechanical systems, and nanoelectromechanical systems, having contact interfaces with normal or tangential motion...

... by Bay-Wanheim, Dahl, Bliman-Sorine, Lund-Grenoble, as well as atomic scale and fractal models, among others). Friction treated as a complex process being in interaction with wear, heat emission, and deformation is also discussed. Then the impact of dry friction models on current dynamical systems theory...

... statistics, namely fractional contact area, the maximum value of contact pressure, von Mises and principal tensile stresses, and relative meniscus force. The results allow the specification of layer properties to reduce friction, stiction, and wear of layered rough surfaces. A comprehensive review...
