• Friction in the Microtribosystems.Influence of Condensed Water 

      Olaru, Dumitru; Stamate, Ciprian; Dumitrescu, Alina; Ianus, Gelu (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2009)
      To evaluate the influence of condensed water on the rolling friction in the microtribosystems, the authors used a micro tribometer consisting in a driving rotational disc in contact with 3 microballs which sustain an ...
    • Tribological Aspects of Electrode-Elastomer Contact 

      Cârlescu, Vlad; Olaru, Dumitru; Prisăcaru, Gheorghe (UDJG, 2010)
      Dielectric elastomers (DE) are soft polymers based smart materials that may be potentially employed in applications such as actuation, sensing and energy harvesting. The performance of dielectric elastomer actuators (DEA) ...
