... with control factors, the influences of their interactions on tribological behaviour of the composite materials are also studied. Sliding wear Wear testing Modelling Optical microscopy Electron microscopy Metal-matrix composite Two-body abrasion It has been generally noted that metal...

...Paresh Indubhai Andharia; Gunamani Deheri Purpose The paper aims to improve upon the performance of a squeeze film formed by a magnetic fluid between longitudinally rough conical plates. Design/methodology/approach The objectives are achieved by mathematically modeling a magnetic fluid‐based...

... lubrication (EHL) circular contact problems. Design/methodology/approach The average flow model is adapted for the interaction of the flow rheology of lubricant and surface roughness. The average Reynolds type equation (ARTE) and the related flow factors (which describes the coupled effects of surface...

... the weight of the network during the training. Findings The designated NN has superior performance for modelling of the system. Therefore, the proposed neural predictor would be used as a predictor for possible experimental applications on modelling bearing system. Research limitations/implications...

... characteristics of the system are evaluated. Findings As compared to the classical Newtonian model, the effects of couple stresses signify enhanced stiffness and damping coefficients (including K_XX, K_XY , B_XX...

...Andrzej Kaźmierczak A computer simulation which as model loads uses program KIVA 3 for combustion engine work process (combustion chamber heat flux, pressure and temperature) computations has been developed. It makes it possible to compute the pressure and temperature distributions and the motion...

... calculational simulation methods. It is concluded that various modern mathematical models used to determine journal bearing properties lead to similar results and support further investigations via the calculational code developed by the author on rough and wavy journal bearing tribosystems for determining...
