Abstract: This article is concerned with the simulation of a magnetic storage device consisting of a flying head above a rigid rotating disk. The need to improve the transfer rate has led, at present, ...

Abstract: The analysis of actual lubrication problems needs to take into account particularities in the flow coming from kinematic conditions and contact geometry. For hybrid journal bearings lubricated ...

Abstract: A global method for the solution of thermohydrodynamic problems is proposed for the analysis of lubricated contacts with non-newtonian fluids. A set of algebraic equations is obtained after ...

Abstract: The last decades have experienced a growing enhancement of aeronautical oil free turbomachinery. The classical linear approach of rotor dynamics commonly uses stiffness and damping coefficients ...

Abstract: A finite element fluid-structure coupling is developed in order to simulate a lubricated forming process, A dynamic explicit code is used for elasto-plastic deformation calculations and normal ...
