Abstract An analysis is presented for the action of individual tire tread elements on polished sections of pavement covered by thin fluid films. Tread element flexibility, wheel slip, and time-dependent loading are incorporated. The effect of the lateral expansion of tread elements on groove closure is also studied.

Systematic Perturbation

Lubrication theory is broadly applicable to the flow characterization of thin fluid films and the motion of particles near surfaces. We offer an extension to lubrication theory by starting with Stokes equations and considering higher-order terms in a systematic perturbation expansion to describe the fluid flow in a channel with features of a modest aspect ratio. Experimental results qualitatively confirm the higher-order analytical solutions, while numerical results are in very good agreement with the higher-order analytical results. We show that the extended lubrication theory is a robust tool for an accurate estimate of pressure drop in channels with shape changes on the order of the channel height, accounting for both smooth and sharp changes in geometry.

Fluid Coupling

Rotating parts of turbomachines are generally studied using different uncoupled approaches. For example, the dynamic behavior of shafts and wheels are considered independently and the influence of the surrounding fluid is often taken into account in an approximate way. These approaches, while often sufficiently accurate, are questionable when wheel-shaft coupling is observed or when fluid elements are strongly coupled with local structural deformations (leakage flow between wheel and casing, fluid bearings mounted on a thin-walled shaft, etc.). The approach proposed is a step toward a global model of shaft lines. The whole flexible wheel-shaft assembly and the influence of specific fluid film elements are considered in a fully three-dimensional model. In this paper, the proposed model is first presented and then applied to a simple disk-shaft assembly coupled with a fluid film clustered between the disk and a rigid casing. The finite element method is used together with a modal reduction for the structural analysis. As thin fluid films are considered, the Reynolds equation is solved using finite differences in order to obtain the pressure field. Data are transferred between structural and fluid meshes using a general method based on an interfacing grid concept. The equations governing the whole system are solved within a time-marching procedure. The results obtained show significant influence of specific three-dimensional features such as disk-shaft coupling and local disk deformations on global behavior.

Infrared Methods

Interferometry has provided the sensitivity needed for the gathering, through suitable windows, of infrared absorption and emission spectra of excellent resolution (<1 cm−1) from sample volumes even as small as EHD contact regions. Thus the power of molecular vibrational spectroscopy can be used to determine phase changes and structural changes in fluids subjected to conditions prevailing in EHD contacts. In this paper, some of the infrared methods are illustrated by the description of preliminary work in which the cavity of a high-pressure diamond anvil cell was used for contact simulation. Reference is made to a fluorescence-spectroscopic method of pressure determination in the diamond cell, which is also helpful in locating liquid/glass transition points.
