TL;DR: In this paper, the main types of nanoparticles that have been used as lubricants additives and outlines the mechanisms by which they are currently believed to function and significant aspects of their tribological behavior such as dispersion stability and morphology are also highlighted.

TL;DR: The use of surface texturing to improve the cutting performance of tools is a relatively new application as mentioned in this paper, and surface texturization can be beneficial in many ways; for example, it can reduce friction and wear, increase load carrying capacity, and increase fluid film stiffness.

TL;DR: In this article, the anti-wear and extreme pressure (EP) ability of chemically modified palm oil (CMPO) by adding nanoparticles was experimentally evaluated, and the MoS 2 nanoparticles exhibited better AW/EP properties than did the CuO nanoparticles.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the friction and wear behaviour of twelve different types of diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings with an API Group III base oil, and found that a clear dependence of wear and friction on each type has been observed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a single-cylinder gasoline engine was measured with the IMEP (indicated mean effective pressure) method at realistic engine speeds and loads without any major engine modifications and the forces acting on the piston assembly were carefully determined by measuring the cylinder pressure, crankshaft angular velocity, and strain in the connecting rod.
