| Project Timeline from WEEK1 through WEEK 10 |
Week 1 Ideas & Thoughts The project that we are doing is about exploring the benefits of surface patterns and its relationship between surface wear and friction. The motivation of this project is to let us have a deeper thought on how the coefficient of the surface’s friction would affect the surfaces itself by using different areas ratios. The goal of this project is to try to gain some knowledge about the health, safety, and quality parts of life and try to have some ideas of application to functional surfaces.  |

Week 2
Project Proposal & Main Schedule for the Project is settled (At the top of the Page)
Decide the ratio and surface for what our project is.

Week 3
This week we were supposed to print our first sample (pictured below) but got held back because the 3-D printers were backloaded.
During the week, we put the pulley on to the sample and practice setting up the Mark-10 machines with our sample. Also, we use the sand paper to polish our surface.
In this week, we test our first surfaces with the Marc-10 machines. And the outcomes appears great for the experiment. Also, we started the next two different ratio of our surfaces.
This week, we printed our second surface with the area ratio of 2 and are ready for testing in week 8. The surface did look differently then the first area ratio of 1 surfaces appear in the top of the picture.
Week 4
This week we to print our sample as showed in the last week's picture. The printed result is shown below. And we started to work on the other parts of the sample but was a little slow as we just first started it.

Week 5
During the week, we put the pulley on to the sample and practice setting up the Mark-10 machines with our sample. Also, we use the sand paper to polish our surface.
Week 6
In this week, we test our first surfaces with the Marc-10 machines. And the outcomes appears great for the experiment. Also, we started the next two different ratio of our surfaces.
Week 7
This week, we printed our second surface with the area ratio of 2 and are ready for testing in week 8. The surface did look differently then the first area ratio of 1 surfaces appear in the top of the picture.
Week 8&9
During these two weeks, we get the graph of average coefficient of friction value with and without the sand paper. The surface are having pretty large different friction after using the sandpaper as the pictures shown below.
