...Longchang Zhang; Wei Wang; Qi Chen; Zhenhua Qing Purpose Gears operating under starved lubrication and heavy loads often suffer from elevated friction and accelerated wear, leading to performance degradation or failure. This study aims to investigate the influence of micro-dimpled texture...

... performances of compound pit-textured TCRBs under starved lubrication conditions are studied using a friction and wear test rig. The influence mechanisms of the compound pit texture on the friction and wear properties of TCRBs are discussed through real tests and discussions. Findings Compared...

...Yueyong Wang; Yimin Zhang Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the influence of dimple textures on the friction and wear properties of tapered roller bearings (TRBs) with many pattern parameters, e.g. diameter, depth and area density under starved lubrication. Design/methodology...

...Risheng Long; Qiang Ma; Zhihao Jin; Yimin Zhang; Hui Han; Shaoni Sun; Xuanying Du Purpose The purpose of this paper is to report the tribological behavior of dimples textured rolling element bearings (REBs) under variable load and starved lubrication. Design/methodology/approach The pattern...

...Risheng Long; Qingyu Shang; Zhihao Jin; Yimin Zhang; Zichen Ju; Manhong Li Purpose The purpose of this paper is to reveal the influence of dimples on the tribological properties of the “washers-cage-rollers” system of rolling element bearing (REB) under starved lubrication. Design/methodology...

...Risheng Long; Chao Zhao; Zhihao Jin; Yimin Zhang; Zhen Pan; Shaoni Sun; Weihua Gao Purpose The purpose of this paper is to reveal the friction and wear performance of grooves textured cylindrical roller thrust bearings with different groove dimensions under starved lubrication. Design...

... be prolonged under magnetic field. In addition, with a proper magnetic field distribution, lubricant starvation may be limited under the conditions of present experiments. Originality/value This work provides a method to control the starved lubrication of rolling bearings with restricted lubricant supply...

...Mingyong Liu; Peidong Xu; Jinxi Zhang; Huafeng Ding Purpose Power loss is an important index to evaluate the transmission performance of a gear pair. In some cases, the starved lubrication exists on the gear contact interface. The purpose of this paper is to reveal the mechanical power loss...

... its tribological and vibrational behaviours under starved lubricating condition using micro size MoS2 blended grease. The performance behaviours of the textured race bearing have been compared with conventional bearing (i.e. having both races without textures) under the identical operating conditions...
