Thrust Bearing with Rough Surfaces Lubricated by an Ellis Fluid

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2014
In the paper the influence of bearing surfaces roughness on the pressure distribution and load-carrying capacity of a thrust bearing is discussed. The equations of motion of an Ellis pseudo-plastic fluid are used to derive the Reynolds equation.

Droplet impact on a thin liquid film: anatomy of the splash [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate the dynamics of drop impact on a thin liquid film at short times in order to identify the mechanisms of splashing formation. Using numerical simulations and scaling analysis, we show that the splashing formation depends both on the ...

Reynolds Equation for a Micro-Scale Lubrication of a Gas Between Eccentric Circular Cylinders with an Arbitrary Temperature Difference Based on Slip-Flow Theory

open access: yesLubricants
Micro-scale lubrication flow of a gas between eccentric circular cylinders with an arbitrary temperature difference is studied on the basis of the Navier–Stokes set of equations and the velocity slip and temperature jump boundary conditions.

Mutual influence of cross hatch angle and superficial roughness of honed surfaces on friction in ring-pack tribo-system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The cylinder bore surface texture, widely produced by the honing technique, is an essential factor for a good engine performance (friction, oil consumption, running-in, wear etc.).

Lubrication subjected to effects of electric and magnetic fields: recent research progress and a generalized MEMT-field Reynolds equation

open access: yesFrontiers in Mechanical Engineering
Electric and magnetic fields have been used in various ways to enhance the performance of lubrication systems. The presence of these fields can significantly change the properties of lubricants. The rapid adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) has presented

Air cushioning with a lubrication/ inviscid balance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The air cushioning effect in the gap between an almost inviscid body of water and a nearby solid wall (or another body of water) is studied theoretically and is found to depend on predominantly lubricating forces in the air, in certain applications.

A Non‐Reciprocal Architected Porous Medium

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In several fluid flow, energy‐dumping, and energy‐harvesting applications, a dominant flow direction or dominant resistance direction is desirable. In this study, we propose a simple modular geometry that doubles flow resistance in one direction relative to the opposite direction, while maintaining laminar viscous flow.

Mixed Lubrication Analysis of Vane Sliding Surface in Rotary Compressor Mechanisms

open access: yesTribology Online, 2009
In order to investigate the effects of the elastic deformation of the vane-slot on the lubrication characteristics of the vane sliding surface in a rotary compressor, a mixed lubrication analysis considering the elastic deformation has been performed for

Theoretical analysis of effect of MHD, couple stress and slip velocity on squeeze film lubrication of rough Triangular plates

open access: yesInternational Journal of Thermofluids
In this study, Christensen's stochastic theory is utilized on rough surfaces' hydrodynamic lubricating effect to examine how surface roughness, couple stress fluid, slip velocity, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD), and the triangular surface interact.
