Analysis for Hydrodynamic Wedge-Platform Thrust Slider Bearing with Ultralow Surface Separation by Chao Wang, Yongbin Zhang

“…For the case of ultralow surface separation, in a hydrodynamic wedge-platform thrust slider bearing, the outlet zone and a portion of the inlet zone are in boundary lubrication, while most of the inlet zone is in the multiscale lubrication contributed by both the adsorbed boundary layer and the intermediate continuum fluid film. The present paper first presents the mathematical derivations for the generated pressure and carried load of this bearing based on the governing equation for boundary lubrication and the multiscale flow equation. …”

Experiment Research on Bonding Effect of Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) Device by Surface Treatment Method by Xiaopeng Wang, Kun Lian, Tianning Chen

“…According to the low temperature and high effective bonding problem of microdevices made of degradable polymer PLGA, chemical, plasma, and UV irradiation method are used to study the experimental surface treatment of PLGA films and microdevices bonding process. The results show that all three methods can reduce the surface contact angle of PLGA films, the contact angle increases with time at room temperature, and the PLGA films contact angle is almost unchanged under refrigeration. …”
