Modeling the origins of adhesive wear across scales

Son-Jonathan Pham-Ba

Friction and wear occur at every interface between solid materials. In the design of mechanical devices, it is desirable to be able to quantify and control the amount of friction and wear, as well as predict their evolution with time. ``Tribology'' is the ...

Numerical and experimental study of the dynamic thermal resistance of ventilated air-spaces behind passive and active façades

Dolaana Khovalyg, Mohammad Rahiminejad

The variation of the thermo-hydrodynamic behavior of the airflow in the ventilated cavity behind external claddings in a wall structure could potentially affect the overall thermal resistance of the entire structure. Although the impact of an enclosed air- ...

A method to numerically determine the secondary electron yield considering effects of the surface morphology

Guang-Yu Sun

Secondary electron emission (SEE) of solid materials due to electron bombardment is influenced by numerous properties of materials, where the surface condition plays a critical role in the value of secondary electron yield (SEY). Here, a 3D random microstr ...
