	abstract = {This paper provides a numerical study of the hydrodynamic lubrication between two parallel surfaces with micro-texturing. The two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations for an isothermal incompressible steady flow have been considered as a suitable model. A wide variety of geometries characterised by different micro-cavity depth and width, and different gap values have been analysed in order to study the influence of these parameters on the drag force magnitude. A detailed analysis of flow velocity profiles and pressure distributions has been performed to study the forces acting on the textured surface, providing an explanation for the maximum drag reduction achievable with a single-phase lubrication fluid. Furthermore, results indicate that three regions exist, depending on the cavity depth, in which a different flow dynamics occurs and the cavities have a different influence on the drag force. Finally, an "optimal" value of the depth has been found, for which the pressure reaches a minimum value and the probability of cavitation is maximised. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},

	abstract = {Teflon (polytetrafluoroethylene) surface has been modified with a single step oxygen-fed plasma process resulting in the formation of peculiar “sphere-on-cone” micro-scale relieves. Though presenting some irregularity and random distribution, surfaces with a steep variation of topography can be obtained by properly tuning plasma process parameters. We show that, though exhibiting similar superhydrophobic properties in terms of water contact angle, the ability to withstand vertically impacting water droplets falling at medium/high impacting speeds can be sensitively different. In particular, high repulsive properties characterize surfaces with denser and smaller relieves. In the other cases the occurrence of pinning events results in longer time-of-contact and a shorter time-of-flight of the drop. Interestingly, the impact pressure values at which pinning transitions have been observed are consistent with critical pressures for penetration calculated by modeling the surface as an array of spheres. When critical pressure is exceeded, and water penetration is expected, reversible or non reversible pinning can be explained on the basis of the wetting/de-wetting cycle within the sphere-on-cone's layer.},

	abstract = {A continuous-time Markov process is proposed to analyze how a group of humans solves a
complex task, consisting in the search of the optimal set of decisions on a fitness landscape. Individuals
change their opinions driven by two different forces: (i) the self-interest, which pushes them to increase their
own fitness values, and (ii) the social interactions, which push individuals to reduce the diversity of their
opinions in order to reach consensus. Results show that the performance of the group is strongly affected by
the strength of social interactions and by the level of knowledge of the individuals. Increasing the strength
of social interactions improves the performance of the team. However, too strong social interactions slow
down the search of the optimal solution and worsen the performance of the group. In particular, we find
that the threshold value of the social interaction strength, which leads to the emergence of a superior
intelligence of the group, is just the critical threshold at which the consensus among the members sets in.
We also prove that a moderate level of knowledge is already enough to guarantee high performance of the
group in making decisions.},

	year = {2015},
	journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SOLIDS AND STRUCTURES},
	volume = {69-70},
	abstract = {Contact mechanics between rough solids usually relies on the half-space approximation, which assumes that the contact area dimension is much smaller than the thickness of the layers of materials that characterize the surfaces of the contacting bodies. However, such simplifying assumption is often inadequate when industrially relevant applications are considered, in particular those of biomechanical interest. Indeed, a large variety of systems, including not only classical engineering applications such as gear boxes, shafts, tyres, etc., but also biological tissues such as human skin, is characterized by superficial coatings; very often the mechanical properties of these coatings are very different from those of the bulk region of the bodies in contact. The aim of this paper is to shed light on the role played by the thickness of the layer of material used as a coating, with specific focus on the contact between a rigid rough surface and a thin deformable layer bonded to a rigid substrate. Starting from a recently developed boundary element formulation (Carbone and Putignano, 2013), we derive a methodology which accounts for finite thickness by a corrective coefficient modulating the classical Greens function, and extends our analyses to periodic domains. This enables to avoid border effects and provides an innovative tool to tackle viscoelastic contacts with realistic roughness. This is exploited to perform a thorough investigation of the mechanisms responsible for frictional losses in layered systems characterized by different materials, thickness and loading conditions. Results show that decreasing the layer thickness corresponds to an increase in the contact stiffness. Furthermore, in the case of viscoelastic layer, particular attention has to be paid to the changes in the viscoelastic dissipation due to the finite thickness of the surface layer.},

	abstract = {We investigate the loading and unloading behavior of soft solids in adhesive contact with randomly rough profiles. The roughness is assumed to be described by a self-affine fractal on a limited range of wave vectors. A spectral method is exploited to generate such randomly rough surfaces. The results are statistically averaged, and the calculated contact area and applied load are shown as a function of the penetration, for loading and unloading conditions. We found that the combination of adhesion forces and roughness leads to a hysteresis loading-unloading loop. This shows that energy can be lost simply as a consequence of roughness and van der Waals forces, as in this case a large number of local energy minima exist and the system may be trapped in metastable states. We numerically quantify the hysteretic loss and assess the influence of the surface statistical properties and the energy of adhesion on the hysteresis process.},
