    Influence of viscosity modifiers on hydrodynamic friction

    , Pages: 405-408

    In order to understand (and ultimately to predict) the friction reduction, resulting from the use of polymer solutions, the rheological properties of model polymer solutions have been measured over a wide shear rate. As well as temporary shear thinning, some permanent shear thinning of the higher molecular weight polymer solutions has been noted in the USV.

    Contact properties of wet clutch friction material

    , Pages: 338-340

    Contact units formed by wet clutch friction materials have been studied over a range of pressures and during rubbing. The real contact area increases approximately linearly with applied load, and at nominal pressures of above 2 MPa, the contact units may be deforming elastically and plastically to give larger units. During sliding the real area of contact increases dramatically due to a truncating wear mechanism on the contact units. These findings are supported by AFM images of individual fibres before and after the rubbing test.

    The mechanisms of wet clutch friction

    The impact of additives on wet clutch friction was studied in a pure sliding regime with speeds of 0.01 to 2 m/sec, and contact pressures of ∼ 3 MPa, using a modified MTM. Simple linear carboxylic acids and mixtures were used as model friction modifiers (FM), including: hexanoic, dodecanoic, and stearic acid, to study the effect of chain length and oleic, elaidic, and 12-hydroxy stearic acids to study the effect of some structural changes on the friction. The model friction modifiers ha lower friction and gave a positive gradient μ-V curve. Friction decreased with model FM chain length, as greater lateral side chain interactions existed, which produced more effective friction reducing layer. The friction was also dependent on the structure of the model FM used. Elaidic acid and 12-hydroxy stearic acid had a higher friction coefficient than the saturated stearic acid.

    Thermal aspects of debris in EHL contacts

    A technique is developed for the measurement of the temperature rise resulting from debris entrainment in an EHL lubricated contact. Under pure rolling, temperature rises are small, because minimal shearing occurs. Under sliding conditions, the temperature rise generally increases from when the particle is entrapped in the inlet zone, to peak near the contact centre where shearing is a maximum. The measured values and the theoretical simulation show a similar trend in temperature rise as the particle passes through the contact. The magnitude of predicted temperatures is significantly higher than those measured. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the World Tribology Congress (Kyoto, Japan 9/6-11/2009).

    Lubrication of high sliding MEMS

    Effective lubrication for micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) was studied. A new micro-tribometer was developed to measure friction and film thickness under conditions representative of MEMS. For hydrocarbon lubricants, friction increased with sliding speed and decreased with increasing applied normal load, which is in accord with hydrodynamic theory. Using low viscosity fluids, satisfactory friction coefficient values were obtained with negligible wear. Good agreement was obtained between experimental results and a finite difference model. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the World Tribology Congress (Kyoto, Japan 9/6-11/209).

    An investigation of the load support of fluid trapped in dents

    , World Tribology Congress 2009 Proceedings

    The load support by lubricants trapped in a dent was investigated using combined experimental and modeling study. The plastic deformation of the pre-indent shoulders for the dry case was greater than for the lubricated case, indicating that the entrapped lubricant was supporting a significant proportion of the applied load. By varying the pre-indent geometry, the load support depended on the conformity of the contacting surfaces, the relative change in volume, and thus the pressure increase of the trapped lubricant. For a conforming geometry, and assuming no leakage of oil from the pre-indent, the entrapped lubricant can support 60% of the applied load, assuming 50% leakage, the entrapped lubricant supported 34% of the applied load. By ignoring the effect of lubricants trapped in dents, the fatigue life of rolling element bearings could be underestimated. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the World Tribology Congress (Kyoto, Japan 9/6-11/209).

    Improved infrared temperature mapping of elastohydrodynamic contacts

    , Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part J: Journal of Engineering Tribology, Vol: 223, Pages: 1165-1177, ISSN: 1350-6501

    An effective means of studying lubricant rheology within elastohydrodynamic contacts is by detailed mapping of the temperature of the fluid and the bounding surfaces within the lubricated contact area. In the current work, the experimental approach initially developed by Sanborn and Winer and then by Spikes et al., has been advanced to include a high specification infrared (IR) camera and microscope. Besides the instantaneous capture of full field measurements, this has the advantage of increased sensitivity and higher spatial resolution than previous systems used. The increased sensitivity enables a much larger range of testable operating conditions: namely lower loads, speeds, and reduced sliding. In addition, the range of test lubricants can be extended beyond high shearing traction fluids. These new possibilities have been used to investigate and compare the rheological properties of a range of lubricants: namely a group I and group II mineral oil, a polyalphaolephin (group IV), the traction fluid Santotrac 50, and 5P4E, a five-ring polyphenyl-ether. As expected, contact temperatures increased with lubricant refinement, for the mineral base oils tested. Using moving heat source theory, the measured temperature distributions were converted into maps showing rate of heat input into each surface, from which shear stresses were calculated. The technique could therefore be validated by integrating these shear stress maps, and comparing them with traction values obtained by direct measurement. Generally there was good agreement between the two approaches, with the only significant differences occurring for 5P4E, where the traction that was deduced from the temperature over-predicted the traction by roughly 15 per cent. Of the lubricants tested, Santotrac 50 showed the highest average traction over the contact; however, 5P4E showed the highest maximum traction. This observation is only possible using the IR mapping technique, and is obscured when measuring the traction

    An investigation of convection effects in complete and almost complete contact problems

    , EUR J MECH A-SOLID, Vol: 28, Pages: 680-687, ISSN: 0997-7538

    The problem of a rigid, square-ended and an almost square-ended rigid punch sliding with both plane and anti-plane velocity components is studied. It is shown that, for a truly complete contact, if the contacting body is incompressible, convection effects are absent. Introducing either: (a) local rounding or (b) finite compressibility of the contacting body into the problem introduces convection, and hence an inconsistency into the bulk/pointwise application of the orthogonal friction law.

    Frictional Energy Dissipation in a Rough Hertzian Contact

    , J TRIBOL-T ASME, Vol: 131, ISSN: 0742-4787

    The interfacial contact pressure and shear traction distributions are found for a sphere pressed onto an elastically similar half-space whose surface is populated by a uniform array of spherical asperities, when the normal load is constant and an oscillatory shear, less than that needed to cause sliding, is imposed. Details of the load history suffered by asperities in an outer sliding annulus and an inner disk, where they experience partial slip, are found, together with the effects of the roughness on the overall tangential compliance and the frictional energy losses. It is shown that for the example combination of parameters chosen, under light shear loads, the rough contact absorbs less energy than a smooth one subject to the same loading history, but that for larger shearing forces the reverse is true.

    Residual strain analysis in polycrystalline aggregates using diffraction measurement and finite element modelling

    , J STRAIN ANAL ENG, Vol: 44, Pages: 55-70, ISSN: 0309-3247

    This paper reviews some of the modelling and experimental techniques recently employed by the authors for the analysis of the macro- and mesoscopic behaviour of polycrystalline aggregates. A joined-up approach is used for assessing the deformation behaviour of polycrystalline materials at the macroscopic and grain levels, based on combining modelling using the crystal plasticity finite element (CPFE) method with experimental characterization by in situ loading and continuous lattice strain measurement by diffraction. The complementarity of the two methodologies is emphasized, as it helps to improve understanding of the physics underlying inelastic deformation, damage mechanisms, and fatigue crack initiation. The proposed approach is part of the attempt to develop a general framework that will enable reliable and accurate determination of the inhomogeneous fields of plastic strain, the regions of localized plasticity, and intergranular residual stresses. Examples are given of microscopically calibrated CPFE simulations being used to match the experimentally observed evolution of lattice stresses and strains in advanced structural alloys of industrial interest.

    Compression heating and cooling in elastohydrodynamic contacts

    , Tribology Letters, Vol: 36, Pages: 69-80, ISSN: 1023-8883

    In this study, the infrared temperature mapping technique, originally developed by Sanborn and Winer (Trans ASME J Tribol 93:262-271, 1971) and extended by Spikes et al. (Tribol Lett 17(3):593-605, 2004), has been made more sensitive and used to study the temperature rise of elastohydrodynamic contacts in pure rolling. Under such conditions lubricant shear heating within the contact is considered negligible and this allows temperature changes due to lubricant compression to be investigated. Pure rolling surface temperature distributions have been obtained for contacts lubricated with a range of lubricants, included a group I, and group II mineral oil, a polyalphaolefin (group IV), the traction fluid Santotrac 50 and 5P4E, a five-ring polyphenyl-ether. Resulting maps show the temperature rise in the contact increases in the inlet due to compression heating and then decreases and in most cases becomes negative in the exit region due to the effect of decompression. Temperature changes increase with entrainment speed but in the current tests are always very small, and less than 1 C. Contact temperature rises from compression were compared to those from sliding contacts (where a slide-roll ratio of 0.5 was applied). Here the contribution to the contact temperature from compression is shown to decrease dramatically with entrainment speed. The lubricant 5P4E is found to behave differently from other lubricants tested in that it showed a peak in temperature at the outlet. This effect becomes more pronounced with increasing speed, and has tentatively been attributed to a phase change in the exit region. Using moving heat source theory, the measured temperature distributions have been converted to maps showing rate of heat input into each surface and the latter compared with theory. Qualitative agreement between theory and experiment is found, and a more accurate theoretical comparison is the subject of ongoing study. 2009 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.

    Improved temperature mapping of ehl contacts

    , Miami, FL, United states, 2008 STLE/ASME International Joint Tribology Conference, IJTC 2008, October 20, 2008 - October 22, 2008, Publisher: ASME, Pages: 265-267

    An effective means of studying lubricant film rheology within EHL contacts is by detailed mapping of the temperature of the fluid and the bounding surfaces within the lubricated contact area. This provides a way of directly measuring the rheology of lubricant films under true EHL conditions. Furthermore, temperature measurement itself provides a very effective means of testing and validating computer simulations. In the current work, the experimental approach initially developed by Sanborn and Winer [11 and then by Spikes and co-workers [2], has been advanced to include a high specification infrared (IR) camera and microscope. This is a similar approach to that taken by Yagi and Kyogoku [3]. As well as the instantaneous capture of full field measurements, this has the advantage of increased sensitivity and higher spatial resolution than previous systems used. The increased sensitivity enables a much larger range of testable operating conditions; namely lower loads, speeds and reduced sliding. In addition, the range of test lubricants can be extended beyond high shearing traction fluids. One additional advantage of instantaneous full field measurements is that the weak infrared optical interference caused by the film can be observed and can used to exactly locate the centre of the contact in the resulting temperature maps. These new possibilities have been used to investigate and compare the rheological properties and compression cooling effects exhibited by a PAO, a group II mineral oil, and a traction fluid.

    The problem with large diameter metal-on-metal acetabular cup inclination.

    , Bull NYU Hosp Jt Dis, Vol: 67, Pages: 189-192, ISSN: 1936-9719

    Large diameter metal-on-metal hip bearings have proven to be clinically successful in active patients, but, in a small number, they are associated with elevated wear and high metal ion levels when cup inclination angles are too steep and the version is too extreme, or either alone. Based on the geometry of six different commercially available large diameter metal-on-metal acetabular components, this study demonstrated that the critical bearing surface operates at an angle up to 16 masculine greater than the cup face inclination. Due to geometry alone, measured cup inclination is not the angle that most surgeons perceive it to be. We strongly recommend when employing large diameter metal-on-metal bearings that lower inclination and version angles are targeted to prevent excessive wear.

    Crack tip deformation fields and fatigue crack growth rates in Ti–6Al–4V☆

    , Pages: 1771-1779, ISSN: 0142-1123

    In this paper we present an overview of experimental and modelling studies of fatigue crack growth rates in aerospace titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V. We review work done on the subject since the 1980s to the present day, identifying test programmes and procedures and their results, as well as predictive approaches developed over this period. We then present the results of some of our recent experiments and simulations. Fatigue crack growth rates (FCGRs) under constant applied load were evaluated as a function of crack length, and the effect of overload (retardation) was considered. Crack opening was measured during cycling using digital image correlation, and residual stress intensity factor was determined using synchrotron X-ray diffraction mapping. Modelling techniques used for the prediction of FCGRs are then reviewed, and an approach based on the analysis of energy dissipation at the crack tip is proposed. Finally, directions for further research are identified.

    The characteristics of a semi-infinite flat and rounded contact, subject to constant normal load and oscillating shear, are found. These include the slip displacement and frictional energy expenditure, together with the process of frictional shakedown. The set of solutions is applied to the problem of a D shaped punch having a very small radius at the notionally sharp corner. The possible application of the methodology outlined in this paper to a range of fretting fatigueproblems is also discussed. © 2008 W. S. Maney & Son Ltd.

    Low saps antiwear additives

    Modern engine lubricant specifications impose limits on permissible sulfur and phosphorus and ash levels. This necessitates a reduction in the concentration of the additive ZDDP which, in future, may require the latter's partial or complete replacement by other chemistries which have less or zero phosphorus, sulfur, and/or ash. The main types of low SAPS additive that have been suggested to have antiwear performance includes MDDP, thiophosphates and thiophosphonates, metal dialkylphosphates phosphates, metal dithiocarbamates, and organosulfides. These classes of additives were presented. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the 16th International Colloquium Tribology Lubricants Materials and Lubrication Engineering (Stuttgart/Ostfildern, Germany 1/15-17/2008).
