The water-lubricated bearing in ship propulsion system is easily impacted by sea wave
shock, which is a great threat to the smooth start-up of the bearing system. Therefore, in the …

In this study, MoS2–hBN hybrid nanoparticles were synthesized using an advanced
microwave platform for new nanolubricant formulations. The synthesized nanoparticles were …

Driven by the potential applications of sliding bearings in planetary gearboxes for wind
turbines, the wear prognosis of heavy loaded sliding bearings under low rotational speeds is …

Adequately designed and positioned surface textures are recognized as a promising way to
increase load-carrying capacity and reduce frictional losses of journal bearings. The aim of …

The present study aims at predicting the maximum temperature in line contacts depending
on operating conditions. For this purpose, a thermo-elastohydrodynamic lubrication (TEHL) …

Contact models are used, among others, to describe the asperity contact in lubricated
contacts. In recent decades, a large number of contact models have been developed based …

A vehicle start–stop system automatically shuts down and restarts the internal combustion
engine to reduce the time the engine spends idling, thereby reducing fuel consumption and …

In order to explore the influence of different acceleration and deceleration forms on the
bearing performance during acceleration and deceleration, an isothermal and mixed …
