Adjoint Error Estimation for Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication [PDF]
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]
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

Relationship Between Physical Characteristics of Cereal Polysaccharides and Soft Tribology-The Importance of Grain Source and Malting Modification. [PDF]
The physical characteristics of the main starch and non‐starch polysaccharides in worts were characterized. The lubrication behaviour of the worts was analyzed by soft tribology. The data analysis showed the relationship between the molar mass and conformation of these polysaccharied and lubrication behaviour in laboratory‐produced worts.

Positive Effect of Periodic Micropatterns on Compression Ring Friction
For internal combustion engines, reducing friction is becoming increasingly important to reduce emissions. It is shown that laser‐interference‐induced microtextures on amorphous carbon‐coated piston rings are able to significantly reduce the friction of the piston assembly when tested in single‐cylinder engines.

Transient torque reversals in indirect drive wind turbines
Abstract The adverse effect of transient torque reversals (TTRs) on wind turbine gearboxes can be severe due to their magnitude and rapid occurrence compared with other equipment. The primary damage is caused to the bearings as the bearing loaded zone rapidly changes its direction.

Tribology of dust‐stop seals of mixing machines
Abstract Dust stop seals are widely used in powder and rubber mixing industries. Design of the sealing system requires a continuous supply of pressurised lubricant, which is not recycled because of the risk of contamination. There is also the potential of large volume leakage of oil due to poor sealing, increasing operational costs and necessitating ...
