Influence of Viscous Lubricant on Nucleation and Propagation of Frictional Ruptures

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, François Xavier Thibault Passelègue, Federica Paglialunga

Fluids are pervasive in the Earth's crust and saturate fractures and faults. The combination of fluids and gouge layers developing along faults can generate fluids of different viscosities. Such viscous fluids were found to influence the reactivation, fric ...

Modeling of rough contact interfaces with trapped compressive liquid pockets

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Parissasadat Alavi, Julie Richard, Loris Rocchi

Boundary and mixed lubrication are usually used to reduce friction in sheet metal form- ing. In the boundary lubrication regime load is mainly carried by contacting asperities. Therefore, the tribological problem can be solved in the dry case using a geome ...

Effect of Short Reducing Pulses on the Dynamic Structure, Activity, and Stability of Pd/Al2O3 for Wet Lean Methane Oxidation

Davide Ferri

Natural gas is a suitable alternative to gasoline and diesel fuels to decrease the carbon footprint of the mobility and energy sectors. Unburnt CH4 is typically removed from the exhaust using palladium-based catalysts, which suffer from thermal deactivatio ...

A lubricated tribocorrosion model incorporating surface roughness

Stefano Mischler, Shoufan Cao

This study presents an improvement of an existing tribocorrosion model developed for passive CoCrMo alloys. This model is based on an empirical formalism established by Duncan Dowson in his pioneering works on the relation between wear and elasto-hydrodyna ...

Tribocorrosion of a CoCrMo alloy in sulfuric acid - Glycerol mixtures

Stefano Mischler, Shoufan Cao

This work reports on the tribocorrosion properties of a CoCrMo alloy sliding under imposed passive potential against alumina in sulfuric acid-glycerol mixtures exhibiting different viscosities and thus, in principle, lubrication properties. As expected, we ...

Film thickness distribution in gravity-driven pancake-shaped droplets rising in a Hele-Shaw cell

François Gallaire, Gioele Mariano Nicolò Balestra, Nicolas Igor Jacques Kofman, Lailai Zhu, Isha Shukla

We study here experimentally, numerically and using a lubrication approach, the shape, velocity and lubrication film thickness distribution of a droplet rising in a vertical Hele-Shaw cell. The droplet is surrounded by a stationary immiscible fluid and mov ...

Polyelectrolytes induce water-water correlations that result in dramatic viscosity changes and nuclear quantum effects

Sylvie Roke, Jan Dedic, Halil Ibrahim Okur

Ions interact with water via short-ranged ion-dipole interactions. Recently, an additional unexpected long-ranged interaction was found: The total electric field of ions influences water-water correlations over tens of hydration shells, leading to the Jone ...

Miniaturized tube fixed plug drawing: determination of the friction coefficients and drawing limit of 316 LVM stainless steel

Jean-Marie Drezet, Stefano Mischler, Nicolas Paul Henry Chobaut, Bastien De Marco, Vance Nguyen, Stéphane Dobler

Tube drawing with a ﬁxed plug is investigated experimentally and numerically in order to optimise an industrial pass sequence. Tube drawings are performed on a laboratory drawing bench equipped with force, displacement and temperature sensors. The drawing ...

A comparative study of shock capturing models for the discontinuous Galerkin method

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven

Dealing with strong shocks while retaining numerical dissipation of reasonably low level has been one of the major challenges for high order methods like discontinuous Galerkin. In the literature, various shock capturing models have been designed based on ...

Effect of surface films on tribologically induced metallurgical transformations of steel in oil lubricated contacts

Marco Cantoni, Stefano Mischler, Shoufan Cao

This study was initiated with the aim to assess the influence of boundary films on the tribologically induced metallurgical transformations and deformations of metals in lubricated contacts and their effect on wear. For this, the tribological behavior of a ...
