Mixed-EHL Simulator For Rolling-Sliding Line-Contacts
The simulation app for mixed-EHL rolling-sliding line-contacts has been developed based on the capabilities of the Cam-Roller-Interface Tribotester (CRT-01) shown in Figure 1. The CRT-01 as well as the simulation app, allow the user to evaluate the resulting slide-to-roll ratio...
Thin-Film Sensor for in Situ Measurement of Temperature Rise in Rolling Contacts
The optimization of lubricated rolling contacts with regard to friction and wear is an engineering challenge due to the complex mechanical, chemical and thermal stresses in the surface near area. Calculation models are used to predict the contact pressure, hydrodynamics,...
