IUCRC for Fundamental Investigations in Microtribology

这一补充增加了西北大学的研究计划 大学产学合作研究中心 工程摩擦学通过成本分摊联合协作“TIE” 与加州大学伯克利分校合作的项目 传感器和传感器产业大学合作研究中心 启动器。 “TIE”项目是一项联合协同努力， 模拟极小器件发生的摩擦， 载荷 工业/大学合作研究中心 （I/UCRC）的传感器和执行器是研究摩擦非常 在极小负载下的小型设备。 I/UCRC 工程摩擦学正在开发相应的固体机理模型 这符合其合作的观察结果。 司 机械结构系统公司分担这个项目的费用。 项目经理建议西北大学 拨款五万元资助一项为期两年的“TIE”计划 与加州大学伯克利分校合作。

This supplement augments the research program at Northwestern University's Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Engineering Tribology by cost-sharing a joint collaborative "TIE" project with the University of California, Berkeley's Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Sensors and Actuators. The "TIE" project is a joint synergistic effort to study and model the friction occurring with extremely small devices and loads. The Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) for Sensors and Actuators is studying friction in very small devices under extremely small loads. The I/UCRC for Engineering Tribology is developing relevant solid mechanism models that satisfy its collaboration's observations. The Division of Mechanical & Structural Systems is cost-sharing this project. The Program Manager recommends Northwestern University be awarded $50,000 for a two-year "TIE" project to be performed collaboratively with the University of California, Berkeley.
