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 ...

Nano-montmorillonite-doped lubricating grease exhibiting excellent insulating and tribological properties

open access: yesFriction, 2017
Three types of nano-montmorillonite were doped as additives to afford lubricating greases. The physicochemical, insulating, and tribological performances of the obtained lubricating greases were investigated in detail.

Electrified Damage in Motion Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 15, 5 August 2026.
The electrified damage in motion systems is a fundamental framework presenting the degradation pathway arising from the coupling of electrical energy transport with mechanical contact and interfacial chemistry. The framework positions electrified damage as a distinct degradation regime with unique characteristic surface morphologies and failures of ...

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

Tough, Ductile, and Strong Hard‐Soft Cementitious Composite Enabled by Multi‐Material Additive Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 45, 13 August 2026.
Drawing inspiration from the layered hard‐soft architecture found in sea sponges, this work establishes a new framework for architected cementitious composites (ACC) through multi‐material additive manufacturing (MMAM) process. The integration of mortar and elastomer phases into layered architectures enables synergistic toughening mechanisms, including
