In this video, we break down the concept of the coefficient of friction in AP Physics 1, explaining how static and kinetic friction work and how they affect motion. Clear examples and reasoning help ...

I fell in love with cable driven mechanisms a few years ago and put together some of my first mechanical tentacles to celebrate. But only after playing with them did I start to understand the ...

Tests of a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a pipeline transporting a non-Newtonian fluid, such as most crude oils and ...

In this video, we explain the capstan equation and how friction affects a rope or string wrapped around a surface. You’ll learn where the equation comes from, what each term means, and how it’s ...

SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, Vol. 51, No. 4 (2013), pp. 2448-2469 (22 pages) Stokes equations are considered with the leak boundary condition of friction type. We propose a discrete variational ...

Irregularities present on a surface are often described as surface roughness or texture. These surface textures such as grooves and dimples impart friction, which is the force between two sliding ...

The louvered fin geometry is widely used for heat transfer to air in automotive heat exchangers. The only published correlation for heat transfer and friction in the corrugated louver fin geometry is ...

Tests for a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a non-Newtonian fluid. Sept. 15, 2003 Click on the pdf link below to view ...
