Characterization and modelling of piston ring‐cylinder tribosystem microtopography in lubricated contact
C.N. Pandazaras, G.P. PetropoulosA study of piston ring‐cylinder tribological behaviour under mixed lubrication mode is usually based upon data regarding surface contact magnitudes, fluid film characteristics and…
Short test procedures versus long time tests: new aspects
Walter HolwegerLubricants are very complex mixtures of components. To predict their behaviour over a long time it is necessary to make a lot of machinery element tests. This paper tries to give…
On the shape of the lubricant film for the optimum performance of a longitudinal rough slider bearing
P.I. Andharia, J.L. Gupta, G.M. DeheriEfforts have been made to study the optimum film profile for a longitudinally rough slider bearing. The roughness of the bearing surface is modelled by stochastic random variable…
Modern heavy duty diesel engine cold start wear study
A. Plomer, R. BendaIncreasingly stringent European market requirements for improved heavy duty diesel engine performance, such as fuel economy and durability, continue to highlight the need for…
