Bio-based lubricant with additives: Tribological performances in hydrodynamic journal bearing by Norazman, Amanda, Paiman, Zulhanafi, Samion, Syahrullail, Afiq, Muhammad Noor, Muhammad Yazid, Witri, Rasep, Zuraidah

“…Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the performance of bio-based lubricants (BBL), namely, palm mid-olein (PMO) enriched with an antioxidant agent, tertiary-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) and a viscosity improver, ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), in journal bearing (JB) applications. Design/methodology/approach: Samples of the BBL were prepared by blending it with TBHQ and EVA at various blending ratios. …”

The political economy of FDI location : why don't political checks and balances and treaty constraints matter? by Walter, Andrew

“…I ask whether domestic political checks and balances and international legal instruments that aim to protect FDI enable governments to commit credibly to avoid future policies that diminish the value of suck FDI. …”

Dynamics of a self-interacting sheet in shear flow by Funkenbusch, William T., Silmore, Kevin S., Doyle, Patrick S.

“…Finally, we calculate the stresslet and find that, even in the absence of thermal fluctuations and multiple sheet interactions, shear-thinning followed by shear-thickening behavior can appear.…”

Development of interactive software (shear force and bending moment) by Wong, Jun Yan

“…It shall be capable of serving as a learning platform, as well as providing pertinent information in response to user interaction with the graphical user interface (GUI). Shear force and bending moment diagrams will also be generated to better visualize and convey the concept of shear force and bending moment for future learners. …”

Passive acoustic tracking of an unmanned underwater vehicle using bearing-Doppler-speed measurements by Kita, Kristen Railey, Randeni, Supun, DiBiaso, Dino, Schmidt, Henrik

“…The propeller rotation rate can be estimated from the motor signature and converted to speed using a pre-identified model of the robot. The bearing-Doppler-speed measurements outperformed traditional bearing-Doppler target motion analysis: the bearing, bearing rate, range, and range rate accuracy improved by a factor of 2×, 16×, 3×, and 6×, respectively. …”

Master curves for FENE-P fluids in steady shear flow by Yamani, Sami, McKinley, Gareth H.

“…An exact solution for the rheological predictions of the FENE-P model in steady simple shear flow is available [Sureshkumar et al., Phys Fluids (1997)], but the resulting nonlinear and nested set of equations do not readily reveal the key shear-thinning physics that dominates at high Wi as a result of the finite extensibility of the polymer chain. …”
