Journal ArticleDOI
The Preparation of Graphene Oxide and Its Derivatives and Their Application in Bio-Tribological Systems
TL;DR: Graphene oxide (GO) can be readily modified for particular applications due to the existence of abundant oxygen-containing functional groups as mentioned in this paper, which has wide potential applications in biomedical engineering and biotechnology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contact modelling of human skin: What value to use for the modulus of elasticity?
TL;DR: This study shows that for the contact modelling of human skin, a closed-form expression exists, which yields the magnitude of the effective elastic modulus of the skin as a function of the length scale of the contact depending on variables such as age, gender and environmental conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of surface texturing as dimples on the wear evolution of total hip arthroplasty was investigated by developing finite element analysis from the prediction model without dimples and with bottom profile dimples of flat, drill, and ball types.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of fingerpad contact mechanics and friction and how this affects tactile perception
TL;DR: In this article, the coefficient of friction of the fingerpad decreases with normal load to a constant value, which can be attributed to effects of normal adhesion and the deformation behaviour of the fingertip.
Journal ArticleDOI
The tribological performance and tribochemical analysis of novel borate esters as lubricant additives in rapeseed oil
TL;DR: In this article, two borate esters, tris (4-dodecylphenyl) borate and 2-(2-(4-modal-phenoxy)-1, 3, 6, 2-dioxazaborocan-6-yl) ethanol, were synthesized and applied as anti-wear and extreme pressure additives in rapeseed oil.
