Welcome to the Engineers Site Office. This is where engineers gather and check in when they have project tasks to organise and carry out.

This page is to discuss anything related to WikiProject Engineering and issues of ongoing concern.

Seeking collaborators: “Kinematics of Sliding” model (tribology/manufacturing/transport)

Hi all,

I’m developing freely licensed diagrams, animations, and a lay-readable explanation of a generalized sliding distance model (kinematics; differing surface velocities). Intended uses: bearings, conveyors, gears, rolling processes, grinding, and transport systems. I’ll host media on Commons and draft pages in userspace before mainspace.

I’d value: (1) scope/structure advice, (2) sourcing standards, (3) pointers to existing articles needing this content.

A draft is available at []

Thanks!

Sliding between two objects in motion and in contact is an undesirable industrial phenomenon, as it generates heat and accelerates wear of the bodies involved. This article provides a valuable study of the issue, offering deeper insight into the problem and serving as a foundation for research aimed at reducing the negative effects of sliding. ~2025-39668-91 (talk) 06:04, 10 December 2025 (UTC)

questionable notability?

Dear colleagues,

I hope this message finds you well.

I have been working on a draft article titled Kinematics of sliding. Over time, I’ve made several improvements and refinements to the content. However, the draft remains flagged as "not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia."

I would greatly appreciate it if a member of WikiProject Engineering could kindly review the draft and, if deemed appropriate, consider providing a supporting statement regarding the significance of this topic. Your input would be invaluable in helping to clarify its relevance within the field of engineering.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration.
