Adjoint Error Estimation for Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication [PDF]
, 2008 In this thesis, adjoint error estimation techniques are applied to complex elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) problems. A functional is introduced, namely the friction, and justification is provided as to why this quantity, and hence its accuracy, is ...

High Order Finite Element Solution of Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication Problems [PDF]
, 2006 In this thesis, a high-order finite element scheme, based upon the Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method, is introduced to solve one- and two-dimensional Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication (EHL) problems (line contact and point contact). This thesis provides an

A Computational Study on the Role of Lubricants under Boundary Lubrication [PDF]
Lubricants, 2023 The knowledge of how lubricants contribute to the operational life of a drive train is unclear until now, despite the fact that plenty of literature is available. A novel concept is presented in order to estimate the wear appearing in bearings addressed to the regime of mixed friction with respect to the composition and the so-called “inner” structure ...

Lubricants, 2016 During breathing, the pleural surfaces slide against each other continuously without damage. Pleural liquid and lubricating molecules should provide the lubrication of the sliding surfaces, thus protecting the mesothelium from shear-induced abrasion.

Hydrostatic and boundary lubrication of joints; nature of boundary lubricant.
Ortopedia Traumatologia Rehabilitacja, 2012 A very low coefficient of friction in joints makes it difficult to define clearly the mechanism of cartilage lubrication. The present paper describes the two currently predominant and mutually complementary views aiming to elucidate this mechanism. The first mechanism, referred to as hydrostatic lubrication, involves interstitial fluid pressurization ...

Numerical Wear Modeling in the Mixed and Boundary Lubrication Regime
Lubricants, 2022 The increasing use of low-viscosity lubricants in order to reduce the friction in machine elements such as rolling bearings is leading to increased operation in the mixed or boundary lubrication regime.
