Abstract: A new generalized Reynolds equation, which can incorporate most of the rheological laws found in the literature, is derived in this paper. A number of numerical solutions of the line contact ...

Abstract: The transient behavior of tribo-characteristics caused by micro-dimples on point contact surfaces with different mechanical and thermal properties was investigated based on non-Newtonian thermal elastohydrodynamic lubrication ...

Abstract: In order to clarify the effect of thermal conductivity on non-Newtonian thermal elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) in the point contact with longitudinal roughness on one surface or on both surfaces, numerical calculations ...

Abstract: In order to understand the loadcarrying mechanism of thermal wedge, numerical results for a rectangular pad and a slider with parallel gaps under four types of surface boundary temperature conditions are presented. Two ...

Abstract: A new method for solving the shear stress and the effective viscosity of Eyring shear-thinning fluid in thermal elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) was proposed and applied to two models. Model 1 is the thermal EHL model ...

Abstract: The interaction and surface features between point contact surfaces composed of longitudinal roughness with infinite or finite length and transverse roughness were discussed based on a transient non-Newtonian thermal ...
