Download or read book Finite Element Modeling of Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication Problems written by Wassim Habchi and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-07-23 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covers the latest developments in modeling elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) problems using the finite element method (FEM) This comprehensive guide introduces readers to a powerful technology being used today in the modeling of elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) problems. It provides a general framework based on the finite element method (FEM) for dealing with multi-physical problems of complex nature (such as the EHL problem) and is accompanied by a website hosting a user-friendly FEM software for the treatment of EHL problems, based on the methodology described in the book. Finite Element Modeling of Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication Problems begins with an introduction to both the EHL and FEM fields. It then covers Standard FEM modeling of EHL problems, before going over more advanced techniques that employ model order reduction to allow significant savings in computational overhead. Finally, the book looks at applications that show how the developed modeling framework could be used to accurately predict the performance of EHL contacts in terms of lubricant film thickness, pressure build-up and friction coefficients under different configurations. Finite Element Modeling of Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication Problems offers in-depth chapter coverage of Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication and its FEM Modeling, under Isothermal Newtonian and Generalized-Newtonian conditions with the inclusion of Thermal Effects; Standard FEM Modeling; Advanced FEM Modeling, including Model Order Reduction techniques; and Applications, including Pressure, Film Thickness and Friction Predictions, and Coated EHL. This book: Comprehensively covers the latest technology in modeling EHL problems Focuses on the FEM modeling of EHL problems Incorporates advanced techniques based on model order reduction Covers applications of the method to complex EHL problems Accompanied by a website hosting a user-friendly FEM-based EHL software Finite Element Modeling of Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication Problems is an ideal book for researchers and graduate students in the field of Tribology.

Book Efficient Finite Element Simulation of Full system Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication Problems

This book was released on 2012 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is concerned with the efficient numerical solution of problems of elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL). Our approach is to consider fully-coupled models in which the governing equations for the lubricating film, the elastic deformation and the force balance are each discretized and solved as a single monolithic nonlinear system of algebraic equations. The main contributions of this work are to propose, implement and analyse a novel, optimal, preconditioner for the Newton linearization of this algebraic system, and to assess the development of efficient finite element meshes through both manual tuning and the use of adaptive mesh refinement based upon a posteriori error estimation and control. Throughout this work, we employ first order finite element discretizations for both the Reynolds equation (for the lubricant) and for the linear elasticity model on a finite domain. The resulting nonlinear algebraic equations are then solved using a quasi-Newton algorithm. For each linear solve a Krylov subspace method is used and a new blockwise preconditioner is presented which is designed to exploit the specific structure that is present in this class of problem. This preconditioner combines the use of multigrid preconditioning for the elasticity block and a separate, efficient, approximation to precondition the Reynolds block. The solver developed in this work can be distinguished into two variants based upon the use of algebraic and geometric multigrid preconditioning of the elasticity block. Numerical results are presented both for line and point contact problems to validate the implementations and to allow a comparison of the performance and efficiency of the proposed solution strategies compared to the use of a state-of-the-art sparse direct solver at each Newton step. These results demonstrate that the preconditioned iterative approach is both computationally and memory superior to the sparse direct solver. Most importantly, both the computational and memory costs are seen to grow linearly with the number of unknowns. A locally adaptive solution scheme is also developed for fully-coupled EHL point contact problems. This automates the refinement process to the regions of the domain which exhibit large error in their solutions. Numerical results are presented which demonstrate the performance and effectiveness of the proposed procedure.

Book Finite Element Method for Heat Transfer Problem in Hydrodynamic Lubrication

Download or read book Finite Element Method for Heat Transfer Problem in Hydrodynamic Lubrication written by Kwang June Bai and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Galerkin's finite element method is applied to a two-dimensional heat convection-diffusion problem arising in the hydrodynamic lubrication of thrust bearing used in naval vessels. A parabolized thermal energy equation for the lubricant, and thermal diffusion equations for both bearing pad and the collar are treated together, with proper juncture conditions on the interface boundaries. It has been known that a numerical instability arises when the classical Galerkin's method, which is equivalent to a centered difference approximation, is applied to a parabolic-type partial differential equation. Probably the simplest remedy for this instability is to use a one-sided finite difference formula for the first derivative term in the finite difference method. However, in the present coupled heat convection-diffusion problem in which the governing equation is parabolized in a subdomain (lubricant), uniformly stable numerical solutions for a wide range of the Peclet number are obtained in the numerical test based on Galerkin's classical finite element method. In the present numerical computations, numerical convergency errors in several error norms are presented in the first model problem. Additional numerical results for a more realistic bearing lubricant problem are presented for a second numerical model. (Author).
