Abstract: A simple experimental technique is developed that allows the pressures and stresses predicted by EHL analyses to be checked. A soft, rough steel disc is run, under controlled conditions, against ...

Abstract: The inverse approach, described in detail in a companion paper, is applied to two contacts. The first is a line contact with transverse roughness; the second a point contact with an ellipticity ...

Abstract: Using modern EHL programs it is relatively simple to determine the pressures and clearances in rough EHL contacts. The pressures may then be used to calculate the subsurface stresses in the ...

Abstract: The paper presents the results of an experimental and theoretical investigation of the effect of clamping ratio and orifice size on the performance of slippers in axial piston pumps and motors. ...

Abstract: Characteristics of a liquid lubricant film at the nanometer scale are discussed in the present paper. The variations of the film thickness in a central contact region between a glass disk and ...

Abstract: Isotropic conductive adhesives (ICA) have been considered as replacement materials for lead-tin solder alloys. In this paper, the post-impact shear strength of ICA surface mount (SM) joints was ...
