The elastohydrodynamic (EHD) traction coefficients of a lubricating grease LGLT2 were tested at various loads and rolling speeds on a self-made test rig. Traction coefficient versus slide-to-roll ratio curves were generated. Formulae which relate traction coefficient with normal load and rolling speed are put forth. The coefficients of the formulae may be computed by regression analysis of the experimental data. The results show that the calculated traction coefficients agree well with the experimental observation. The critical normal load exists when the traction coefficients change with the normal loads.

LGLT2 grease is a newly developed lithium based grease used widely in small rolling bearing of instrument and control equipment at high speed.In this paper the curves of the traction coefficient against slide-to-roll ratio of LGLT2 film are measured on a high-speed ball-disc traction force tester under the conditions of the varying rolling speed from 20m/s to 40m/s and the varying load from 20N to 40N.The experimental results show that the grease LGLT2 performs well under above conditions,demonsrating lower traction coefficients with the increasing rolling speed. Both T-J model and an exponential model are employed to fit the experimental data. The results show that there are high consistencies between the experimental data and calculation values obtained from both models.

The traction behavior of high-speed lubricating grease 7007 was tested on a self-made test rig. The changes of traction coefficients with velocity, temperature and load were got from the experimental results. The rheological parameters were received on the basis of experimental data. The formula of traction force of high-speed lubricating grease 7007 was based on the correctional T-J model. The result shows that the traction coefficients of high-speed lubricating grease 7007 based on correctional T-J mode agree well with the experimental data.

The most important features of the self-lubricating bearings are the antifriction properties such as friction coefficient and wear resistence and some mechanical properties such as hardness, tensile strength and radial crushing strength. In order to improve these properties new antifriction materials based on iron-copper powders with several additional components (tin, lead and molybdenum disulphide) have been developed by PM techniques. To find the optimal relationship between chemical compositions, antifriction and mechanical properties, in this paper a mathematical model of the sintering process is developed, which highlighted the accordance of the model with data by regression analysis. For the statistical processing of the experimental data the VH5 hardness values of the studied materials were considered. The development of mathematical model includes the enunciation of the model, the establishment of the performance function (optimization) and the establishment of the model equations and verifying. The accordance of the model with experimental data has been highlighted by regression analysis

For the validation of empirical models to calculate leakage flow rates in through-wall cracks of piping, reliable experimental data are essential. In this context, the Leakage Flow (LF) test rig was built up at the IKE for measurements of leakage flow rates with reduced pressure (maximum 1 MPA) and temperature (maximum 170 °C) compared to real plant conditions. The design of the test rig enables experimental investigations of through-wall cracks with different geometries and orientations by means of circular blank sheets with integrated cracks which are installed in the tubular test section of the test rig. In the paper, the experimental LF set-up and used measurement techniques are explained in detail. Furthermore, first leakage flow measurement results for one through-wall crack geometry and different imposed fluid pressures at ambient temperature conditions are presented and discussed. As an additional aspect the experimental data are used for the determination of the flow resistance of the investigated leak channel. Finally, the experimental results are compared with numerical results of WinLeck calculations to prove specifically in WinLeck implemented numerical models.

The aim of the work is to investigate power flows in the vibration reduction system equipped with a magnetorheological (MR) damper and energy regeneration. For this purpose, experiments were conducted in the test rig compound of the shaker and the vibration reduction system (electromagnetic harvester, MR damper, spring) which are attached to the sprung mass. The experimental data acquired under sine excitations enabled us to analyze instantaneous power fluxes, as well as a rate of inertial energy changes in the system.

Maintenance of offshore drilling mud pumps is normally based on running hours. It is generally accepted, however, that time does not provide an accurate means of scheduling maintenance, given the varying operating conditions of the reciprocating mud pumps. The energy expended at the interaction of sliding surfaces is hypothesized to be a better alternative. The effects of operating variables on wear rates are investigated. A Taguchi experimental design was used to identify those factors that significantly affect wear. Within the confines of an experimental test rig, the normal load and abrasive sand content was found to have a significant effect on the specific wear rate of nitrile rubber sliding on steel in drilling fluid.

Adopting the test rig of traction characteristics of grease-lubricated sliding bearing, the practical condition of sliding bearing was simulated and the traction coefficient of DGG Grease under different temperature, velocity and load was tested. Besides, the traction characteristics of the grease were also elaborated. The results indicate that the traction coefficient increases when the temperature gradually rises from room temperature while it gradually decreases when the temperature exceeds 85°C. Under the condition of high temperature and high pressure, the extreme pressure additive has obvious effects, the traction coefficient reducing and maintaining constant, so a better lubrication effect is realized.

The paper presents a dynamic model of a dual clutch lever-based electromechanical actuator. Bond graph modeling technique is used to describe the clutch actuator dynamics. The model is parameterized and thoroughly validated based on the experimental data collected by using a test rig. The model validation results are used for the purpose of analysis of the actuator behavior under typical operating modes.

Abstract The utilization of additively manufactured parts is gaining popularity in functional applications. Polymer-based additive manufacturing (AM) parts are utilized in a variety of engineering applications for automotive, aerospace, and energy. AM printed parts are however newer class of materials, and structural performance of these materials is not fully understood completely, and very limited exists currently on precisely performance of Polyjet printed parts and associated digital materials under fatigue loading. This paper investigates the stiffness degradation under tension-tension fatigue loading of digital polypropylene using homogenous 3-Dimensional test coupons formed using PolyJet printing. Homogeneous 3-Dimensional test configuration employed in the present study eliminates the process-induced limitations of traditional ASTM D638 2D fatigue test coupons for AM processed materials. Fatigue data is analyzed to present an empirical model of effective elastic modulus and an analytical model of the accumulated damage state, as defined on the basis of stiffness degradation during cyclic loading. Further, the actual damage accumulation due to cyclic loading with the predicted model is compared. Modeling of the S-N diagram provides a better estimation of fatigue life and fatigue life modeling of AM printed test coupons and is obtained via linear regression analysis of experimental data with high correlation coefficient R2 (0.9971). The analytical model of the accumulated damage state is based on the stiffness degradation and is derived from the regression analysis of experimental data of stiffness degradation at different loading percentages assuming a polynomial of degree 4. Present study provides insight into the fatigue damage state and cyclic performance of digital polypropylene from Polyjet printing.
