September 2009

1. Automatic bibliography article uploading is now available.

• This new feature enables you to upload articles in two ways:

1. Individual article generation via a manual entry form
2. Bulk article Endnote uploads

• In addition, the AFRESH site offers numerous help guides for using the automatic bibliography upload feature.
• In order to upload bibliography articles, click on the following link: Upload Bibliography Articles
• Information concerning proper citation protocol within AFRESH is shown below:

Adding References/Citations in AFRESH

*Please note: We request that all references added to pages within AFRESH be added to the AFRESH Bibliography. Also, each of the references that you add should be internal links to the bibliography entry that you have created. Articles can be added to the AFRESH Bibliography by clicking on the following link: Upload Bibliography Article

Please use the following formatting when referencing/citing your information:

• The link to the AFRESH Bibliography article that you have created should have this format:
  • [[Page Title | Author(s), Reference Title, Source Title Volume # (Issue #): Page #'s Publication Year]]
    • "Page Title" is the title of the page within AFRESH for the bibliography article that you added.
• An example of the proper reference format for AFRESH is given below:

[[Zhao2007TAF | Zhao XY, Hamilton M, Sawyer WG, Perry SS, Thermally activated friction, Tribology Letters 27 (1): 113-117 2007]]

• The above link example will appear like this:

Zhao XY, Hamilton M, Sawyer WG, Perry SS, Thermally activated friction, Tribology Letters 27 (1): 113-117 2007

• In order to cite the information that you are referencing, please bracket and numerically mark the citation as an internal link to the article you are referencing → [1]
  • The above bracketed should look like the following example:

[[Zhao2007TAF| [1] ]]

• This citation method is illustrated below from the AFRESH page on Granular Lubrication:

---

The process of chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP), which is a subject of intense interest in electronics manufacturing, involves the flow of a slurry of particles [1, 2, 3] to attain a high degree of planarity on silicon wafers.

2. AFRESH now has the capacity for displaying movies up to 200 MB in size.

• These uploaded movies can be made available to others in two ways:

1. The movies can be added as downloadable files that users can view on their personal computers.
2. The movies can be added as embedded video files that users can view locally on the AFRESH site.

Detailed information regarding the uploading of movie files is shown below:

1. Inserting a Downloadable Video File:

• The easiest way to accomplish this is by clicking on the media file toolbar button →
  • The button will provide the following format:

[[Media:Example.ogg | Insert name to call video]]

• Example.ogg will be the source of the file that you upload to the wiki by clicking on the Upload file link on the left side of the page.
  • The following example will illustrate how the insertion of a downloadable video functions in an AFRESH article:

[[Media:Bos_comp.avi | Compression of a Carbon Nanoonion]]

• The format shown in the preview are above will look like this:
  • Compression of a Carbon Nanoonion

2. Inserting an Embedded Video File:

• In order to insert an embedded video into an AFRESH article, you first need to upload a media file by clicking on the Upload file link on the left side of the page.
  • You should also upload an image that is representative of the video by clicking on the same link.
• The method for inserting the embedded video is shown in this simple format:

<localvideo width="# of pixels" height="# number of pixels" title="Insert name to call video" image="Example.jpg">Example.ogg</localvideo>

• Example.jpg will be the source of the representative image file that you uploaded.
• Example.ogg will be the source of the video file that you uploaded.
• In addition, the embedded video allows you to specify the width and height in number of pixels for the video and image as well as the title that you wish to call the file that you have embedded.
  • The following example will illustrate how the embedded file functions in an AFRESH article:

<localvideo width="504" height="478" title="Compression of a Carbon Nanoonion" image="Bos_comp.JPG">Bos_comp.avi</localvideo>

The format shown in the preview area above will look like this:

August 2008

After much effort by Keith Gulledge, AFRESH has officially taken its first step towards its educational interests.

• Educational Material
  • This page separates out the many different aspects of friction such as math, chemistry, and physics.
  • Each aspect is further broken down based on either topic of interest or level (i.e. grade school through graduate student)
• Every AFRESH user is highly encouraged to take advantage of this new information and pass it along to your students, colleagues, etc.

July 2008

1. The latest publications from the numerous tribology journals can now be seen via the RSS feeds that we have set up on AFRESH.

• These publications can be found through the following links:
  • New Releases → Compilation of all recent journal publications
  • Tribology Journals → Describes the individual tribology journals and provides links to each journals own RSS feed

2. Just a quick reminder about the Career Opportunities page:

• Hopefully all of you are aware that this function is available since the more people utilize it and know about it, the more important AFRESH will become to the tribology community
  • Thank you to Dr. Martini for taking the initiative to post several positions thus far. She has provided a good example as to how these postings should look.
  • Also, please pass along these opportunities to any of your graduate or undergraduate students who might be interested.

June 2008

1. New commenting template now available.

• designed for users to be able to provide their opinions on the different journal articles available in the AFRESH Bibliography
• the rating system within the template will be the basis for the Best Seller List of journal articles described on the AFRESH Homepage

{{Comments
|comment1=Insert first comment here.
|signature1=Insert four ~'s here.
|rating1=0 to 5
|comment2=Insert second comment here.
|signature2=Insert four ~'s here.
|rating2=0 to 5
}}

The above template yields the table shown below.

Comments:	List of comments pertaining to this article.	Rating: 0 to 5

1:

Insert first comment here. Comment by: Insert four ~'s here.

0 to 5

2:

Insert second comment here. Comment by: Insert four ~'s here.
