Title of the Paper: The Effect of Frequency and Amplitude of Vibration on the Coefficient of Friction for Metals
Authors as they appear in the Paper: Jamil Abdo and Mahmoud Tahat
Email addresses of all the authors: jdabdo@squ.edu.om
Number of paper pages: 10
Abstract: Experiments were conducted to determine the effects of frequency and amplitude of vibration on friction. The experimental analysis also seeks to take into account a variety of factors influencing the coefficient of friction such as normal load and surface roughness. An in-house pin-on-disc apparatus was constructed with a spindle speed control and applied forced-feedback to perform the tests. The response surface methodology is utilized to investigate the effects of the factors and their cross influence on the coefficient of friction for the Steel C1020 and Aluminum 7079. The analysis of variance is done on the experimental data to evaluate the statistical significance of the model. The response equation for the coefficient of friction of Steel C1020 and Aluminum 7079 were determined. The ranges of frequency and amplitude of vibration were 120 – 600 Hz and 15 – 225 µm, respectively. Studies have shown that the coefficient of friction decreases with the incre!
ase of frequency and amplitude of vibration within the observed ranges for both metals whereas the in case of Aluminum 7079 the coefficient of friction is about 13 % when it compares with the coefficient of friction of Steel C1020.

A fake conference organization claims relation and sponsorship from EUROPMENT

We received an email from dr.leoboucard@gmail.com from an unknown conference organization (based in Canada or India) that claims collaboration with EUROPMENT.

The Spam message of this fake and bogus organization says that extended version of the best papers in this bogus conference will be published in EUROPMENT Journals and EUROPMENT Books.

EUROPMENT does not have any relation with these Fake Conferences in Canada and India.

This bogus organization uses the name and logo of EUROPMENT without any permission. Its advertizing practices are predatory and mock and bogus and fake.

Some papers published in this fake conferences' organization have lifted from EUROPMENT (www.europment.org) without permission. These papers are republished in this site without the permission of EUROPMENT and without the permission of their authors. EUROPMENT has already sent emails to these authors, these victims of the other fake EUROPMENT web site.

At the moment, there is no any EUROPMENT conference in Canada nor in India. So, if you receive any Call For Papers for a EUROPMENT Conference in Canada or India, forward this email (with the headers) to us: info@europment.org, report it to your university and inform us about any other plagiarizing activity.

The owner of the bogus and fake misguiding and misleading web site is some Leo Bouchard
and his email is dr.leoboucard@gmail.com

Please, send emails and inform your colleagues that Leo Bouchard (dr.leoboucard@gmail.com) has no connection and has no relation with EUROPMENT.
EUROPMENT does not recognize the conferences of Leo Bouchard as genuine academic conferences rather than a scam. They are fake, bogus conferences with absolutely no relation with EUROPMENT. EUROPMENT is a non-profit organization without any relation with Leo Bouchard (dr.leoboucard@gmail.com) fake, bogus, predatory, scam, mock, sham activities and fake, bogus, predatory, scam, mock, sham conferences.

For 2014, 2015 etc, the only genuine and real EUROPMENT conferences are the conferences that EUROPMENT presents in our official web site: www.europment.org

So, for 2014 and 2015, we do not sponsor, we do not support, we do not support technically any other conference. Only the conferences of www.europment.org belong to us. Any other conference outside the domain www.europment.org that claims or pretend relations wtih EUROPMENT is fake and bogus. We do not know also if the name Leo Bouchard is real or a fake internet figure, a fake internet persona.

So, be careful and be aware of Leo Bouchard fake EUROPMENT activites. The real EUROPMENT www.europment.org has never authorized Leo Bouchard to use our name (EUROPMENT) and has links in his site back to us: www.europment.org

If somebody knows who is Leo Bouchard or thinks who is behind Leo Bouchard, let send and email to me info@europment.org
