Abstract: Combining the contact model of elasticlayered solid with the concept of asperity contact in elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL), a mixedlubrication model is presented to predict friction coefficient over rough surfaces ...

Abstract: A transient mixed lubrication model is used to study the performance of a journal bearing subjected to impulse loading, considering mass conservation and the effects of asperities on flow and contact, to explore a novel ...

Abstract: In the original publication, Fig. 5 is incorrect. The actual applied loads used for all the simulations can be found in the corrected figure below with a peak vertical load of 13.7 kN in magnitude.

Abstract: The piston ring and liner interface is a major source of friction loss in automotive combustion engines. This loss can be mitigated by learning from surfaces from nature that manipulate friction. In this study, novel ...

Abstract: Misalignment between the shaft and the bearing of a journal bearing set may be inevitable and can negatively impact journal bearing performance metrics in many industrial applications. This work proposes a convex profile ...
