Book Nanotribology and Nanomechanics

Download or read book Nanotribology and Nanomechanics written by Bharat Bhushan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-01-27 with total page 1157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent emergence and proliferation of proximal probes, e.g. SPM and AFM, and computational techniques for simulating tip-surface interactions has enabled the systematic investigation of interfacial problems on ever smaller scales, as well as created means for modifying and manipulating nanostructures. In short, they have led to the appearance of the new, interdisciplinary fields of micro/nanotribology and micro/nanomechanics. This volume serves as a timely, practical introduction to the principles of nanotribology and nanomechanics and applications to magnetic storage systems and MEMS/NEMS. Assuming some familiarity with macrotribology/mechanics, the book comprises chapters by internationally recognized experts, who integrate knowledge of the field from the mechanics and materials-science perspectives. They cover key measurement techniques, their applications, and theoretical modelling of interfaces, each beginning their contributions with macro- and progressing to microconcepts. After reviewing the fundamental experimental and theoretical aspects in the first part, Nanotribology and Nanomechanics then treats applications. Three groups of readers are likely to find this text valuable: graduate students, research workers, and practicing engineers. It can serve as the basis for a comprehensive, one- or two-semester course in scanning probe microscopy; applied scanning probe techniques; or nanotribology/nanomechanics/nanotechnology, in departments such as mechanical engineering, materials science, and applied physics. With a Foreword by Physics Nobel Laureate Gerd Binnig Dr. Bharat Bhushan is an Ohio Eminent Scholar and The Howard D. Winbigler Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Graduate Research Faculty Advisor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, and the Director of the Nanotribology Laboratory for Information Storage & MEMS/NEMS (NLIM) at the Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio.

Book Atomic Scale Friction Measurements Using Friction Force Microscopy  Part 1  General Principles and New Measurement Techniques

Download or read book Atomic Scale Friction Measurements Using Friction Force Microscopy Part 1 General Principles and New Measurement Techniques written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friction force measurements using modified atomic force microscopy, called here Friction Force Microscopy (FFM), are becoming increasingly important in the understanding of fundamental mechanisms of friction, wear, and lubrication, and to study interfacial phenomena in micro- and nanostructures used in magnetic storage systems and Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS). FFMs can be used to study engineering surfaces in dry or wet conditions. A review of existing designs of FFMs and methods of friction force measurements is presented. In terms of friction force measurements, there are important issues related to the basic operation and calibration of these instruments which have not been fully studied. A new method of measuring friction fore using a commercial FFM and a calibration Procedure for conversion of measured data to normal and friction forces are presented. Microscale friction data of selected materials are presented and discussed in light of macrofriction measurements.

Book Friction and Wear  From Elementary Mechanisms to Macroscopic Behavior

Download or read book Friction and Wear From Elementary Mechanisms to Macroscopic Behavior written by Valentin L. Popov and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2019-08-21 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friction and the interaction of surfaces can usually be felt at the scale of the contacting bodies. Indeed, phenomena such as the frictional resistance or the occurrence of wear can be observable with plain eye, but to characterize them and in order to make a prediction, a more detailed understanding at smaller scales is often required. These can include individual roughness peaks or single molecule interactions. In this Research Topic, we have gathered a collection of articles representing the state of the art in tribology’s endeavor to bridge the gap between nano scale elementary research and the macroscopic behavior of contacting bodies. These articles showcase the breadth of questions related to the interaction of micro and macro scale and give examples of successful transfer of insights from one to the other. We are delighted to present this Research Topic to the reader with the hope that it will further inspire and stimulate research in the field.
