...Yuko Higashitani; Sanemasa Kawabata; Marcus Björling; Andreas Almqvist In many mechanical systems, elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) is apparent in the interfaces between rolling/sliding parts. Even at small slide-to-roll ratios, detailed knowledge about the oil film thickness and the traction...

... of simulating the entire transition from the full-film and mixed lubrication all the way down to the boundary lubrication and dry contact. Readers may refer to a recent paper by Zhu and Wang [ 23 ] for a more detailed review. Elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) is among the most common types of fluid film...

... significantly reduce some of the pressure spikes and peak values of subsurface stresses and make the load support more evenly distributed among all the rough surface asperities in contact. plasto-elastohydrodynamic lubrication (PEHL) elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) mixed lubrication elastic...

..., multiple inhomogeneities, and functionally graded coatings are analyzed to reveal the influence of inhomogeneities on film thickness, pressure distribution, and subsurface stresses. elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) inhomogeneous materials Equivalent inclusion method FFT Power...

... cases with film thickness to roughness ratio (λ ratio) smaller than 0.5. The present study employs a deterministic mixed elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) model to investigate the performance of lubricating films in different types of contact geometry, including the line contact, circular contact...

...Ning Ren; Dong Zhu; Q. Jane Wang Elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) is one of the most common types of lubrication, which widely exists in many machine elements such as gears, rolling bearings, cams and followers, metal rolling tools, and continuous variable transmissions. These components often...

... life prediction approach for line-contact components based on a 3D line-contact mixed elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) model recently developed by Ren et al. (2009, “A Three-Dimensional Deterministic Model for Rough Surface Line-Contact EHL Problems,” ASME J. Tribol., 131, p. 011501) , which...

... as fast as the other quadrature methods. The original Lobatto algorithm was only applied for incompressible hydrodynamic lubrication. This paper presents a Lobatto point quadrature algorithm which is applicable for thermal elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) problems where both density and viscosity...
