Currently the herringbone grooved journal bearing (HGJB) has applications in the domain of small, low power energy related applications, where high rotational speeds are required for reaching reasonable efficiency and where standard oil lubricated bearings ...
In this paper we investigate the dam-break problem for viscoplastic (Herschel- Bulkley) fluids down a sloping flume: a fixed volume of fluid initially contained in a reservoir is released onto a slope and flows driven by gravitational forces until these fo ...
A new Thermodynamic Approach for modelling mixtures of refrigerants and lubricating oils is presented. The model includes generalized methods for predicting the following thermodynamic properties of refrigerant-oil mixtures: bubble point temperatures, loca ...
Friction modeling of a high-precision positioning system using linear permanent magnet synchronous motors is investigated. The friction force is measured precisely by some specific experiments to eliminate the parasitic ripple force. The experimental data ...
