... directionality in the synthesized samples. The tribological tests were repeated four times on different locations (the sample was rotated in the sample holder) of each sample, and the average COF was reported. To characterize wetting, we measured the water contact angles of the samples using the Rame-Hart...

... glycol hardly migrate on the tested surfaces, and the antimigration capacity of the polytetrafluoroethylene surface was discovered to be very high. Particular attention is paid to the migration mechanism associated with surface tension and contact angle. General guidelines for evaluating the migration...

... on drag torque. A comparison between the nongrooved plate and grooved plate was made. Plates made up of different materials were also tested to reveal the effects caused by the contact angle. Drag torque increases linearly at low rotating speeds and gradually decreases at high rotating speeds...

... theory does not adequately predict the experimentally observed onset of aeration. In the present work, we modify the Neumann boundary condition to include both interfacial tension effects and the dynamics of the interface contact angle. The resulting one-dimensional Cartesian two-phase model...
