  2. Shear velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_velocity

    Shear velocity, also called friction velocity, is a form by which a shear stress may be re-written in units of velocity. It is useful as a method in fluid mechanics to compare true velocities, such as the velocity of a flow in a stream, to a velocity that relates shear between layers of flow.

  3. Tribology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribology

    Tribology is the science and engineering of understanding friction, lubrication and wear phenomena for interacting surfaces in relative motion.It is highly interdisciplinary, drawing on many academic fields, including physics, chemistry, materials science, mathematics, biology and engineering. [1]

    Then the vector value of the resultant force would be determined by the missing edge of the polygon. [2] In the diagram, the forces P 1 to P 6 are applied to the point O. The polygon is constructed starting with P 1 and P 2 using the parallelogram of forces (vertex a). The process is repeated (adding P 3 yields the vertex b, etc.). The ...

  5. Friction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction

    [2] [3] Types of friction include dry, fluid, lubricated, skin, and internal -- an incomplete list. The study of the processes involved is called tribology, and has a history of more than 2000 years. [4] Friction can have dramatic consequences, as illustrated by the use of friction created by rubbing pieces of wood together to start a fire.

  6. Frictional contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frictional_contact_mechanics

    This theory is exact for the situation of an infinite friction coefficient in which case the slip area vanishes, and is approximative for non-vanishing creepages. It does assume Coulomb's friction law, which more or less requires (scrupulously) clean surfaces. This theory is for massive bodies such as the railway wheel-rail contact.

  7. Stribeck curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stribeck_curve

    The discovery and underlying research is usually attributed to Richard Stribeck [1] [2] [3] and Mayo D. Hersey, [4] [5] who studied friction in journal bearings for railway wagon applications during the first half of the 20th century; however, other researchers have arrived at similar conclusions before. The mechanisms along the Stribeck curve ...
