The definitive book on the science of grease lubrication for roller and needle bearings in
industrial and vehicle engineering. Grease Lubrication in Rolling Bearings provides an …

Radial shaft seals are used in a variety of applications, where rotating shafts in steady
housings have to be sealed. Typical examples are crankshafts, camshafts, differential gear …

The surface roughness of friction pairs plays a significant role in the formation of
hydrodynamic fluid film between rod-seal interface. To investigate the influence of rod …

The macroscale simulation methods are commonly used to study wear of rotary lip seals.
These methods oftentimes do not address effects of microscopic interfaces, which, according …

Radial lip seals are successfully used since the 1940s to seal lubricated systems. Despite
extensive experimental and theoretical research in the field, it is still not fully clear how these …

Numerical analyses of the isothermal elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) have made
considerable advances in order to identify the most important features in the successful …

The effects of the textured shaft on the wear and sealing performance of rotary lip seals have
recently attracted considerable attention. This paper presents a numerical method for …

Radial oil seals prevent leakage in mechanical systems where a rotary shaft passes a
housing interface. Hydrodynamic features are added to augment the self-induced back …

Two reduced reaction mechanisms were established that predict reliably for pressures up to
about 20 bar the heat release for different syngas mixtures including initial concentrations of …

The extensive literature on the elastohydrodynamic analysis of rotary lip seals is reviewed.
Models that predict quantities such as film thickness and reverse pumping rate and that …
