Abstract: This paper presents a theoretical analysis of lubrication of rolling contact bearings considering cavitation with a non-Newtonian lubricant, obeying the power law model. Piezo-viscous and deformation ...

Abstract: The micropolar fluid theory, a possible non-Newtonian model for fluids with rigid particle additives in which the average molecular size may be comparable to the material characteristic length, ...

Abstract: Parallel sliding load support has been a subject of numerous theoretical and experimental investigations. Postulated mathematical models suffer from restricting assumptions. The present analysis ...

Abstract: The influence of the inclusion of convection and dissipation terms in the energy equation, on the characteristics of a conical bearing with constant film thickness, rotating with a uniform ...

Abstract: A theoretical analysis of heavily loaded rigid cylindrical roller bearings lubricated by a thin compressible fluid film, considering cavitation, is presented. The lubricating fluid is assumed to ...

Abstract: The problem of elastohydrostatic lubrication of circular plate thrust bearings is analyzed with non-Newtonian power law lubricants. It is seen that the elastic layer on the surface improves the ...

Abstract: A theoretical aspect of hydrodynamic lubrication of two symmetric rollers by power law fluids is analyzed. The effect of fluid convective inertia, which is significant in case of high speed ...

Abstract: The influence of varying slider temperature on the characteristics of a conical bearing with constant film thickness rotating with a uniform angular velocity is examined. The fluid is considered ...
