Book Investigation of Dynamic Friction in Lubricated Surfaces

Download or read book Investigation of Dynamic Friction in Lubricated Surfaces written by Hanuman Rachoor and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research reported in this dissertation is concerned with the development of friction models for lubricated contacts. A few analytical models have been developed to investigate the friction under dynamic velocity conditions. In this study, two different tribological situations such as conformal and non-conformal contacts have been chosen. Friction modeling covers boundary, mixed and full fluid film friction regions. A new theory based on the elastic properties of the surface materials, and fluid film properties of the lubricant at the contact has been developed to determine the dynamic friction in boundary, mixed and full hydrodynamic lubrication regions. In the full fluid film lubrication region, friction has been determined from the lubrication principles based on the tribological situation, i.e., hydrodynamic lubrication theory for a short journal bearing and elastohydrodynarnic lubrication theory for a line contact. A conformal contact formed by a short journal bearing operating in the region where hydrodynamic lubrication theory is valid has been considered to develop a model. The model is simulated for unidirectional as well as bi-directional sinusoidal velocity oscillations for various frequencies. Simulation resulted in a phase lag in the fiction and hysteresis in ftiction versus velocity (f vs. U) curves. The results obtained for unidirectional velocity oscillations indicate qualitative agreement with experimental work on lubricated line contact by Hess and Soom (1990). Results for bi-directional oscillations also show phase lag in friction and similar hysteresis in f vs U curves. In addition to the hysteresis, results for the bi-directional velocity oscillations show a discontinuity in friction at velocity reversals. These results have been verified experimentally. A special apparatus to measure the friction has been designed and built by using a sleeve bearing. Experiments have been conducted to measure friction under various velocity conditions, and the results have been used to determine the coefficients required to simulate the analytical model. The analytical model has been simulated for the above coefficients and the results have been compared with the friction measurements. The comparison shows similar hysteresis in f vs U curves for uni-directional and bi-directional velocity oscillations. However, the friction behavior of the apparatus during bi-directional oscillations differs in the magnitude of the discontinuity (step function) at velocity reversals. The above analytical friction model developed for the hydrodynamic short journal bearing has been extended to investigate the effect of resisting forces on the dynamic friction behavior at low speed. Resistance forces include sliding friction as well as the presliding friction Dahl effect. The Dahl effect is due to elastic deformation of the compliance in the system before the force reaches the breakaway magnitude when sliding initiates. In this study, stiffness of the asperities as well as elastic support have been considered. Simulation results of the model for uni-directional velocity oscillations are in qualitative agreement with earlier experimental work. Simulation of the model for bi-directional velocity oscillations shows that the discontinuity at velocity reversals has been replaced by a line with slope. This work indicates that the stiffness, of the elastic compliance can play a significant role in replacing the discontinuity. The above concepts of friction modeling has been extended for a non-conformal contact formed with a cylindrical surface sliding over a flat surface operating on elastohydrodynamic lubrication theory. In this model, elastohydrodynamic lubrication theory has been used to determine the friction in full fluid film region. Simulation results of this model for uni-directional as well as bi-directional sinusoidal velocity oscillations indicate a similar phase lag in the friction and hysteresis in f vs. U curves as observed in the earlier models. Results of the present investigation indicate that the instantaneous friction is not only a function of the instantaneous velocity, but it is also a function of previous velocity or velocity history. These models can be improved with the aid of more experimental work. Also, these models can be extended for stick-slip analysis and for friction compensation.

Book Interfacial Mechanics

Download or read book Interfacial Mechanics written by Jane Wang and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 636 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the characteristics of material contact and lubrication at tribological interfaces is of great importance to engineering researchers and machine designers. Traditionally, contact and lubrication are separately studied due to technical difficulties, although they often coexist in reality and they are actually on the same physical ground. Fast research advancements in recent years have enabled the development and application of unified models and numerical approaches to simulate contact and lubrication, merging their studies into the domain of Interfacial Mechanics. This book provides updated information based on recent research progresses in related areas, which includes new concepts, theories, methods, and results for contact and lubrication problems involving elastic or inelastic materials, homogeneous or inhomogeneous contacting bodies, using stochastic or deterministic models for dealing with rough surfaces. It also contains unified models and numerical methods for mixed lubrication studies, analyses of interfacial frictional and thermal behaviors, as well as theories for studying the effects of multiple fields on interfacial characteristics. The book intends to reflect the recent trends of research by focusing on numerical simulation and problem solving techniques for practical interfaces of engineered surfaces and materials. This book is written primarily for graduate and senior undergraduate students, engineers, and researchers in the fields of tribology, lubrication, surface engineering, materials science and engineering, and mechanical engineering.

Book Rheological Effects on Friction in Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication

Download or read book Rheological Effects on Friction in Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication written by Edward G. Trachman and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analytical and experimental investigation is presented of the friction in a rolling and sliding elastohydrodynamic lubricated contact. The rheological behavior of the lubricant is described in terms of two viscoelastic models. These models represent the separate effects of non-Newtonian behavior and the transient response of the fluid. A unified description of the non-Newtonian shear rate dependence of the viscosity is presented as a new hyperbolic liquid model. The transient response of viscosity, following the rapid pressure rise encountered in the contact, is described by a compressional viscoelastic model of the volume response of a liquid to an applied pressure step. The resulting momentum and energy equations are solved by an iterative numerical technique, and a friction coefficient is calculated. The experimental study was performed, with two synthetic paraffinic lubricants, to verify the friction predictions of the analysis. The values of friction coefficient from theory and experiment are in close agreement.

Book Dynamical Contact Problems with Friction

Download or read book Dynamical Contact Problems with Friction written by Walter Sextro and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to describe an efficient procedure to model dynamical contact problems with friction. This procedure is applied to different practical problems and validated by experiments. Friction contacts are used to transmit forces or to dissipate energy. Examples for dynamical engineering systems with friction are brakes, machine tools, motors, turbines, bearings or wheel-rail systems. A better understanding of friction phenomena can result in improvements like the reduction of noise and maintenance costs, increased life time of machines and improved energy efficiency. Dependent on the features of the friction contact, different contact models and solution methods are applied.

Book An Experimental Investigation on Fricton and Scuffing Failure of Lubricated Point Contacts

Download or read book An Experimental Investigation on Fricton and Scuffing Failure of Lubricated Point Contacts written by Sai Goutham Soma and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scuffing failure is a catastrophic thermal failure mode induced by the extreme surface temperature of the contacting components. As two mechanical elements roll against each other with high sliding motion, the frictional heat flux elevates the surface temperature to exceed the critical limit, resulting in the welding of the surfaces. The relative motion then tears the welded surfaces apart, causing the damage. Scuffing failure has been an important failure mode for rolling machine elements such as bearings and gears in aerospace applications, owing to the very high operating speeds. Recently, this failure mode has extended to the automotive field, where the power density of the transmission system has been continuously increasing. Employing a two-disk contact set-up, this experimental study investigates the scuffing load carrying capacity of two new alloys, which are paired with the lubricant of the Mil-PRF-23699 turbine fluid, in comparison to the baseline material of AISI 5120, under different speed conditions. The variations of the friction coefficient with the sliding are also quantified for all the three alloy-lubricant pairs under various load and speed conditions. It is observed that the new materials failed to improve the scuffing performance with the lubricant and the operating conditions considered. It is suggested to use a different additive package in the lubricant, which may be more effective for the formation of the protective tribo-film along the new material surfaces. It is also suggested to extend the operating speed range for higher speed applications.

Book Friction and Wear  From Elementary Mechanisms to Macroscopic Behavior

Download or read book Friction and Wear From Elementary Mechanisms to Macroscopic Behavior written by Valentin L. Popov and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2019-08-21 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friction and the interaction of surfaces can usually be felt at the scale of the contacting bodies. Indeed, phenomena such as the frictional resistance or the occurrence of wear can be observable with plain eye, but to characterize them and in order to make a prediction, a more detailed understanding at smaller scales is often required. These can include individual roughness peaks or single molecule interactions. In this Research Topic, we have gathered a collection of articles representing the state of the art in tribology’s endeavor to bridge the gap between nano scale elementary research and the macroscopic behavior of contacting bodies. These articles showcase the breadth of questions related to the interaction of micro and macro scale and give examples of successful transfer of insights from one to the other. We are delighted to present this Research Topic to the reader with the hope that it will further inspire and stimulate research in the field.
