Ionic Liquid Additives for Mixed and Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication [PDF]
Ionic liquids (ILs), both as pure lubricants and as lubricant additives, have been demonstrated extensively to exhibit excellent tribological performance in terms of friction and wear reduction in ...

A mixed lubrication analysis of a thrust bearing with fractal rough surfaces
Fractal descriptions of rough surfaces are widely used in tribology. The fractal dimension, D, is an important parameter which has been regarded as instrument and scale independent, although recent findings bring this into question.

Energy-Based Modelling of Adhesive Wear in the Mixed Lubrication Regime
Adhesive wear in dry contacts is often described using the Archard or Fleischer model. Both provide equations for the determination of a wear volume, taking the load, the sliding path and a set of material parameters into account.

Multi-scale analysis of the roughness effect on lubricated rough contact [PDF]
Determining friction is as equally essential as determining the film thickness in the lubricated contact, and is an important research subject. Indeed, reduction of friction in the automotive industry is important for both the minimization of fuel ...

Viscosity and tribology of copper oxide nanofluids [PDF]
Nanofluids, a term proposed by Choi in 1995 [1], are composites consisting of solid nanoparticles with sizes varying generally from 1 to 100 nm dispersed in a liquid.

An Assessment of Quantitative Predictions of Deterministic Mixed Lubrication Solvers
The ability to simulate mixed lubrication problems has greatly improved, especially in concentrated lubricated contacts. A mixed lubrication simulation method was developed by utilizing the semi-system approach which has been proven to be highly useful

Hydrodynamic modelling of hydrostatic magnesium extrusion [PDF]
Wilson’s hydrodynamic model of the hydrostatic extrusion process is extended to meet the geometry found on residual billets. The transition from inlet\ud to work zone of the process is not considered sharp as in the model of Wilson but as a rounded edge,
