Development of surface finish during the polishing of porcelain ceramic tiles
TL;DR: In this paper, the development of both roughness and gloss with polishing time is well described by quantitative empirical models involving a simple exponential function, and the same model for gloss evolution is also shown to apply to data reported from industrial-scale polishing experiments.

Friction in metal-on-metal total disc arthroplasty: Effect of ball radius
TL;DR: Designing metal-on-metal TDAs with ball radius of 10 or 12 mm, in order to reduce wear and implant loosening is suggested, whereas implants with larger ball radius showed boundary lubrication only.

The surface topography of compacted agglomerates; a means to optimize compaction conditions
Necati Özkan,Brian J. Briscoe +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the surface topography of single-ended die-pressed cylindrical compacts, prepared using agglomerated alumina powders at various values of compaction pressure and cylinder aspect ratio, is described and a means to study the deformation and breakdown of the agglomers at the die walls is evaluated.

Food Oral Processing and Tribology: Instrumental Approaches and Emerging Applications
TL;DR: This work presents an up-to-date information on the key aspects of the science of food tribology, an emerging field which takes into consideration the effect of lubrication by saliva, surface properties, and frictional forces between food and oral parts such as the tongue and hard palate.
