Multi-principal element (MPE) alloys can be designed to have outstanding properties for a variety of applications. However, because of the compositional and phase complexity of these alloys, the experimental efforts in this area have often utilized trial and error tests. Consequently, computational modeling and simulations have emerged as power tools to accelerate the study and design of MPE alloys while decreasing the experimental costs. In this article, various computational modeling tools (such as density functional theory calculations and atomistic simulations) used to study the nano/microstructures and properties (such as mechanical and magnetic properties) of MPE alloys are reviewed. The advantages and limitations of these computational tools are also discussed. This study aims to assist the researchers to identify the capabilities of the state-of-the-art computational modeling and simulations for MPE alloy research.

Abstract This paper describes experimental and analytical studies of the dependence of tire friction on the surface roughness of pavement. Abrasive papers were adopted as representative of the microscopic surface roughness of pavement surfaces. The rolling∕sliding friction of tire tread rubber against these abrasive papers were measured at low slip velocities. Experimental results indicated that rolling∕sliding frictional characteristics depended on the surface roughness. In order to examine the interfacial phenomena between rubber and the abrasive papers, real contact length, partial slip, and apparent friction coefficient under vertical load and tangential force were analyzed with two-dimensional explicit finite element analysis in which slip-velocity-dependent frictional coefficients were considered. Finite element method results indicated that the sum of real contact area and local partial slip were larger for finer surfaces under the same normal and tangential forces. In addition, the velocity-dependent friction enhanced local slip, where the dependence of local slip on surface roughness was pronounced. It proved that rolling∕sliding friction at low slip ratio was affected by local frictional behavior at microslip regions at asperity contacts.
