- This paper advances the state of the art by providing a model design tool for automotive component manufacturers. This work has generated follow on funding from the automotive industry principally in the design of forms of textured features and their location on cylinder liner surfaces. Capricorn Automotive Ltd., as a partner have applied this to manufactured production parts demonstrating a tangible reduction in engine friction losses, which can be confirmed by their Chief Technical Officer.
