Design of a test rig for grease endurance tests

open access: yesResults in Engineering
Background: The performance and endurance of lubricating greases is often assessed through model tests (like four-ball tests or SRV tests). This approach has some limitations, especially when greases with special fillers are investigated, because ...

Application of a Thermodynamic Concept for the Analysis of Structural Degradation of Soap Thickened Lubricating Greases

open access: yesLubricants, 2018
Lubricating greases are special lubricants with a wide range of application. The tribologically stressed grease is used as tribological system and finally modeled as an open thermodynamic system.

Moisture tempers impairment of adult Otiorhynchus sulcatus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) climbing ability by fluoropolymer, talc dust, and lithium grease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
As part of a project to develop tools for the physical exclusion of flightless root weevils, adult black vine weevils (BVW), Otiorhynchus sulcatus (F.), were placed in open enclosures with smooth walls of glass, plastic or aluminum to test their ability ...

Waking a Dormant Legal Resource: Institutional Activation and the Origins of Important Projects of Common European Interest

open access: yesJCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Important Projects of Common European Interest (IPCEIs) have become a central tool of the European Union's (EU) new industrial policy. IPCEIs derive their peculiar name from an exemption to the general prohibition on state aid that has existed since the Treaty of Rome but has only led to the creation of a stand‐alone policy instrument in 2014.

Effect of Over Rolling Frequency on the Film Formation in Grease Lubricated EHD Contacts under Starved Conditions

open access: yesLubricants, 2019
The service life of rolling bearings is significantly affected by the lubricating film formation in elastohydrodynamic (EHD) contacts. Grease lubricated EHD contacts show a film thickness decay from a characteristic rotational speed, which is referred to

When Do Citizens Support Corrupt Politicians? The Trade‐Offs Between Corruption and Competence

open access: yesPublic Administration Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The intriguing paradox of wide public disdain for corruption alongside popular corrupt politicians exists globally. By speaking to public ethics theory and rational choice theory, this study examines the trade‐off in which citizens tolerate corrupt officials in exchange for their competence to deliver public benefits.

Enhancing tribological performance: A comprehensive review of graphene-based additives in lubricating greases

open access: yesResults in Engineering
The integration of carbon-based additives, such as graphene, graphene ox- ide (GO), and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), into lubricating greases has attracted significant interest in the field of tribology. These materials exhibit unique properties such as

Research on Key Technologies of Temperature Rise Suppression for Motor Grease Lubricated Rolling Bearing

open access: yes机车电传动, 2020
At present, grease lubrication is widely used in motor rolling bearings. However, the bearing DN value increases rapidly with the increasing of motor speed and power for the factor that the lubricating grease is semi-solid with poor flow and heat ...
