Abstract:By coupling the equations of the modified Reynolds equation with the anisotropic slip effect, the piezoviscosity and piezodensity relations, the elasticity deformation equation, and the load equilibrium equation are solved simultaneously using the finite element method (FEM) for the elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) of circular contact problems under constant load conditions. Results show that the film thickness is more sensitive to the slip length in a sliding direction (x-direction) than to the slip lengt… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
