Abstract: Durability is a major concern with concrete structures. The ion transport properties of concrete cover can greatly influence the durability of concrete structures since most of the deterioration starts from the surface. ...

Abstract: This study investigates the film formation mechanism of lubrication using a small quantity of lubricating medium in a water environment. A roller-on-disc test rig combined with a fluorescent technique is employed to directly ...

Abstract: Previous research has revealed that introducing a secondary lubricating medium can temporarily enhance water-lubricated bearing performance, thereby reducing the risk of lubrication failure under challenging conditions. ...
