Abstract:Adding nanoparticles can significantly improve the tribological properties of lubricants. However, there is a lack of understanding regarding the influence of nanoparticle shape on lubrication performance. In this work, the influence of diamond nanoparticles (DNPs) on the tribological properties of lubricants is investigated through friction experiments. Additionally, the friction characteristics of lubricants regarding ellipsoidal particle shape are investigated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The … Show more
