This module focusses on experiential learning, application of knowledge gained from lectures and extensive background reading, and you will also be expected to participate in group work. The module ...

Professor Dong-Myeong Shin and his team from the Department of Mechanical Engineering under the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) shed light on the contribution of ions in ...

Most people have experienced the hair-raising effect of rubbing a balloon on their head or the subtle spark caused by dragging socked feet across the carpet. Although these experiences are common, a ...

This paper gives a review of mathematical results of existence and uniqueness of solutions to problems of linear elasticity involving friction. Static, steady sliding and quasi-static problems are ...

Static electricity was first observed in 600 BC, but researchers have struggled to explain how it is caused by rubbing. With a better understanding of the mechanisms at play, researchers potentially ...

The chip industry traditionally has relied on margins to help them mitigate timing problems, but an increasing array of factors are now influencing timing. Can static timing analysis evolve to address ...
