Friction is a very complicated phenomenon arising at the contact of surfaces. Experiments indicate a functional dependence upon a large variety of parameters, including sliding speed, acceleration, critical sliding distance, temperature, normal load, humidity, surface preparation, and, of course, material combination. In many engineering applications, the success of models in predicting experimental results remains strongly sensitive to the friction model. Furthermore, a broad cross section of engineering and science disciplines have developed interesting ways of representing friction, with models originating from the fundamental mechanics areas, the system dynamics and controls fields, as well as many others. A fundamental unresolved question in system simulation remains: what is the most appropriate way to include friction in an analytical or numerical model, and what are the implications of friction model choice? This review article draws upon the vast body of literature from many diverse engineering fields and critically examines the use of various friction models under different circumstances. Special focus is given to specific topics: lumped-parameter system models (usually of low order)—use of various types of parameter dependence of friction; continuum system models—continuous interface models and their discretization; self-excited system response—steady-sliding stability, stick/slip, and friction model requirements; and forced system response—stick/slip, partial slip, and friction model requirements. The conclusion from this broad survey is that the system model and friction model are fundamentally coupled, and they cannot be chosen independently. Furthermore, the usefulness of friction model and the success of the system dynamic model rely strongly on each other. Across disciplines, it is clear that multi-scale effects can dominate performance of friction contacts, and as a result more research is needed into computational tools and approaches capable of resolving the diverse length scales present in many practical problems.

Frictional and fretting wear behaviors of Inconel X-750 alloy against GCr15 steel ball were investigated in dry contact condition with ∼60% air humidity. Fretting tests were run at the high frequency tribosystem SRV 4 in room temperature and ball-on-flat contact configuration were adopted with the relative oscillatory motion of small displacement amplitude (40 μm). Sliding regimes, wear volumes, frictional properties, and material damage mechanisms were studied with regard to different normal loading and test durations. After the tests, the worn surface morphologies were analyzed by three-dimensional (3D) optical surface profiler, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) to distinguish fretting running conditions and material responses for different test cases. It was found that the material removals by abrasive and adhesive wear, debris formation and oxidization, and wear delamination were the main damage mechanisms under the lower normal load where the full slide or gross slip regime (GSR) was dominant between the contact surfaces. On the other hand, fretting regime was found to be a stick-slip or a partial slip at greater loads where damage mechanisms were correlated with deformed asperities, fatigue cracks, and thick layer removal due to highly concentrated cyclic stresses. Time dependence was crucial during GSR where the wear volume increased substantially; however, the wear volumes and scars sizes were consistent over time because of stick-slip effects under the higher normal load.

Fretting-wear is a common problem in different industries, especially when it comes to interactions between metallic components. Flow-induced excitation forces in heat exchangers for instance cause tube-support interactions. The long-term interaction is an important phenomenon, which may cause fretting-wear of the tubes. Experimental tests of the interaction show the occurrence of stick–slip intermittent behavior in the tube response. To precisely simulate the intermittent stick–slip behavior, it is crucial to refine the conceptual model of the coefficient of friction for the entire motion from absolute zero velocity to gross slip phase. The incorporated friction model plays an important role in the determination of the level of fretting-wear in the system. The friction model should satisfy two important criteria. The first important aspect is the strategy of the friction model to detect the cessation of sticking, the beginning of partial-slipping, and establishment of the sliding region. The second important aspect is defining a friction coefficient function for the entire system response to precisely represent the transient stick–slip regions. In the present work, the velocity-limited friction model was compared with the LuGre model, which is a rate-dependent friction model. The effect of varying the break-away force and Stribeck effect on the stick–slip region were also investigated. Furthermore, the criteria to demarcate the stick–slip region in the LuGre model are discussed, and a different method to incorporate the Stribeck effect and presliding damping in the Dahl friction model is proposed. Using the tangential stress distribution in the contact area, a new hybrid spring-damper friction model is developed. The model is able to estimate the elastic, plastic, and partial-slipping distances during the relative motion. The ability of the model to reproduce experimental tests is investigated in the present work.

A new tangential contact model between a rough surface and a smooth rigid flat is proposed in this paper. The model considers the contribution of both elastically deformed asperities and plastically deformed asperities to the total tangential load of rough surface. The method combining the Mindlin partial slip solution with the Hertz solution is used to model the contact formulation of elastically deformed asperities, and for the plastically deformed asperities, the solution combining the fully plastic theory of normal contact with the bilinear relation between the tangential load and deformation developed by Fujimoto is implemented. The total tangential contact load is obtained by Greenwood and Williamson statistical analysis procedure. The proposed model is first compared to the model considering only elastically deformed asperities, and the effect of mean separation and plasticity index on the relationship between the tangential load and deformation is also investigated. It is shown that the present model can be used to describe the stick–slip behavior of the rough surface, and it is a more realistic-based model for the tangential rough contact. A comparison with published experimental results is also made. The proposed model agrees very well with the experimental results when the normal load is small, and shows an error when the normal load is large.

Flow induced excitation forces in heat exchangers cause tube-support interactions. The long-term interaction is an important phenomenon which may cause fretting-wear of the tubes. Experimental tests of the interaction show the occurrence of stick-slip intermittent behavior in the tube response. Many factors are involved to precisely predict the interaction behavior including flow excitation forces, impact and friction forces. One of the explanations behind the intermittent stick-slip behavior may be interpreted by refinements in the conceptual choice of friction model and coefficient of friction. Therefore, among the factors above, the incorporated friction model plays an important role in the determination of the level of fretting-wear in the system. The friction model should satisfy two important criteria: the first important aspect is the strategy of the friction model to detect the cessation of sticking, the beginning of partial slipping and establishment of the sliding region. The second important aspect is defining a friction coefficient function for the entire system response to precisely represent the transient stick-slip regions. In the present work, the velocity limited friction model was compared with the LuGre model which is a rate dependent friction model. The effect of varying the break-away force and Stribeck effect on the stick-slip region was also investigated. Furthermore, the criteria to demarcate the stick-slip region in the LuGre model are discussed and a different method to incorporate the Stribeck effect and presliding damping in the Dahl friction model are proposed. Finally, a new hybrid spring-damper friction model inspired by the Cattaneo-Mindlin stress distribution in the contact region is proposed.

The effects of frequency on the fretting conditions in a glass/PMMA contact have been investigated using experimental analysis and numerical simulations. For partial slip conditions, the changes in the shape of the fretting cycles giving the tangential load as a function of the imposed displacement have been interpreted on the basis of changes in the dynamic modulus of the PMMA as a function of frequency. Using the numerical simulations, the values of the PMMA’s modulus at the various frequencies were determined from the analysis of the fretting cycles. For gross slip conditions, the emphasis was placed on the determination of the range of velocity associated with stick-slip processes. This information has been summarized in a fretting map giving the initial fretting condition as a function of normal load, displacement amplitude, and frequency.

This paper gives an overview about problems of modeling of piezo-actuated stick-slip micro-drives. It has been found that existing prototypes of such devices have been investigated empirically. There is only few research dealing with the theory behind this kind of drives. By analyzing the current research activities in this field, it is believed that the model of the drive depends strongly on the friction models, but in most cases neglecting any influences of the guilding system.These analyses are of fundamental importance for an integrated model combining friction model and mechanical model offering promising possibilities for future research.

Hypertension (HT) is one of the pivotal risk factors for various detrimental diseases like cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), cerebrovascular disease, and renal dysfunction. Currently, many researchers are paying immense attention to various diet formula (dietary approach) with a special focus on micro and macronutrients along with modified lifestyle and standard anti-hypertensive drugs. Micronutrients (minerals/vitamins) play a central role in the regulation of blood pressure (BP) as they aid the function of macronutrients and also improve the anti-hypertensive functions of some anti-hypertensive agents. Even though several studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of micronutrients on controlling BP, still some ambiguity exists among the nutritionists/doctors, which combination or individual mineral (dietary approach) contributes to better BP regulation. Therefore, this critical review article was attempted to delineate the underlying role of micronutrients (minerals and vitamins) for the management and prevention or delaying of HT and their related complications with strong affirmation from clinical trials as well as its mechanism of controlling BP. Moreover, the major source and recommended daily allowance (RDA) of various micronutrients are included in this review for guiding common readers (especially HT subjects) and dieticians to choose/recommend a better micronutrient and their combinations (other nutrients and standard anti-hypertensive drugs) for lowering the risk of HT and its related co-morbid conditions like CVDs.

<p>This study analyses a situation when a geological fault contains a section of anisotropic gouge with inclined symmetry axes (e.g. inclined layering), Bafekrpour et al. [1]. Such gouge in a constrained environment induces, under compression, asymmetric friction (different friction forces resisting sliding in the opposite directions). The rest of the gouge produces conventional symmetric friction. A mass-spring model of the gouge with asymmetric and symmetric friction sections is proposed consisting of a mass with asymmetric friction connected through a spring to another mass with symmetric friction. These masses are set on a base subjected to vibration. A parametric analysis is performed on this system. Two distinct characteristic regimes were observed: <em>recurrent movement</em> resembling stick-slip motion similar to predicted by [2] and <em>sub-frictional movement</em>. Recurrent movement arises when the inertial force is sufficient to overcome frictional force of a block with symmetric friction. Sub-frictional movement occurs when the inertial force is not sufficient to overcome frictional force of an equivalent system with only symmetric friction. The sub-frictional movement is produced by the force in the connecting spring increased due to the movement of the asymmetric friction block in the direction characterised by low friction. We formulate the criterion at which sub-frictional movement occurs. The occurrence of sub-frictional depends upon the relative mass of the symmetric and asymmetric friction sections, as well as the amplitude and driving frequency of the excitation. Power spectra of the produced vibrations are determined for both regimes. The results can shed light on mechanisms of sliding over pre-existing discontinuities and their effect on seismic event generation and propagation of hydraulic fractures in the presence of discontinuities.</p><p>[1] Bafekrpour,<strong> </strong>E., A.V.

The purpose of this review is to provide the latest information on Down syndrome. The author conducted a literature search of available sources describing the issue of down syndrome with special focus on syndrome and made a comparison and evaluation of relevant findings.The results of this review indicate that Down syndrome (DS) is one of the commonest disorders with huge medical and social cost. DS is associated with number of phenotypes including congenital heart defects, leukemia, Alzeihmer’s disease, Hirschsprung disease etc. DS individuals are affected by these phenotypes to a variable extent thus understanding the cause of this variation is a key challenge. In the present review article, we emphasize an overview of DS, DS-associated phenotypes diagnosis and management of the disease.
