    A very simple estimate of adhesion with rough surfaces based on a bearing area model

    19.02.2018
    Here we present an abstract to the paper addressing a simplified model for adhesion between hard rough solids. Abstract In the present note, we suggest a single-line equation estimate for adhesion between elastic (hard) rough [...]

    Feeling of a touch for robots through artificial intelligence and contact area patterns

    06.06.2017
    Eight years ago, Ted Adelson’s research group at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) unveiled a new sensor technology, called GelSight, that uses physical contact with an object to provide a remarkably detailed [...]

    CFD simulation of lubricant flow in bearings

    04.10.2021
    Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a science that studies various fluid flows and flow related behaviours with the aid of computers. CFD is increasingly used to produce quantitative predictions of flow behaviours and get more [...]
