  On the interplay between roughness and viscoelasticity in adhesive hysteresis 

  Pérez Rafols, Francisco; van Dokkum, Jan Steven; Nicola, Lucia (2023-01)
  Article
  Open Access

  Viscoelasticity and roughness are among the possible causes of the adhesive hysteresis displayed by soft contacts. Viscoelasticity causes an increased effective work of adhesion due to stiffening of the contact, while ...

  Modeling contact deformation of bare and coated rough metal bodies 

  Civiero, Ricardo; Pérez Rafols, Francisco; Nicola, Lucia (2023-04)
  Article
  Open Access

  The effect of the presence of a passivation layer on a metal rough surface during contact loading is investigated by means of dislocation dynamics simulations. The metal body is modeled as an FCC single crystal with a ...

  Effect of secondary oxidation of pre-oxidized coal on early warning value for spontaneous combustion of coal 

  Guo, Chaowei; Jiang, Shuguang; Shao, Hao; Wu, Zhengyan; Bascompta Massanes, Marc (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2023-03-01)
  Article
  Open Access

  The indicative ability of a gas indicator for the spontaneous combustion of coal is affected by the secondary oxidation of oxidized coal, from old goafs, entering a new goaf through air leakages. This phenomenon can affect ...
