Abstract: The hybrid squeeze film damper mounted turbulent journal bearing–gear system is proposed in this paper. The nonlinear dynamics of a gear pair supported by such bearing is studied. Numerical results show that, due to the ...

Abstract: In this study, the performance of a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell with doubleside microporous layer (MPL) coating on gas diffusion layer (GDL) is investigated experimentally. A standard commercial SGLآ® 10BA carbon ...

Abstract: In this paper, an optimal

Abstract: This paper presents a new method for formulating the surface-deflection matrix in elastohydrodynamic point contacts. This method evaluates the integrand of the deflection integral at an integration ...

Abstract: A baseline theory is developed in this paper for the design of oil-lubricated centrally pivoted plane-pad thrust bearings. By focusing on the hydrodynamics generated by the viscosity-temperature ...

Abstract: This paper complements several previous papers on modeling of the impact between two elastic bodies with a liquid lubricant. The main feature of the work is the efficient incorporation of ...

Abstract: Understanding of the mechanisms of material removal is of fundamental importance in chemical-mechanical planarization of semiconductor wafers. A plausible mechanism at work is that the material ...

Abstract: The collision process of a pair of asperities on two opposing surfaces is modeled in frictionless sliding motion with an analytically traceable approach. Equations of a sufficiently general ...
