Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication (EHL): Theory and Definition

05.02.2017 Manoj Rajankunte Mahadeshwara

What is Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication (EHL)? Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication – or EHL – is a lubrication regime (a type of hydrodynamic lubrication (HL)) in which significant elastic deformation of the surfaces takes place and it considerably alters […]

Measuring adhesion and friction of polymer nanofibers

04.01.2021

Nanofibers are tiny fibers with diameters measured in the nanometer range. They can be generated by a variety of methods, from various different polymers, therefore they can exhibit different physical properties with different application potentials. [...]

Antiwear tribofilm growth – AFM study

14.03.2016

In a wide range of tribological components, the lubricant is not capable of separating the surfaces and areas of metal-to-metal contact occurs. However, the metal-to-metal contact area can be minimized by the action of additives, [...]
Lubrication and Energy Efficiency
