An experimental study of film thickness in the mixed lubrication regime
, Tribology Series, Vol: 32, Pages: 159-166, ISSN: 0167-8922This paper describes an experimental study of the influence of surface roughness on elastohydrodynamic film thickness in a steel ball on glass flat contact under nominally pure rolling conditions. Steel balls with a range of isotropic roughnesses have been employed and measurements have focused on the mixed lubrication regime where the film thickness is comparable to or below the composite surface roughness. It has been found that full film lubrication is only realised when the nominal lambda ratio (X) has a value of 2 or higher. Below this value, the film thickness decreases, first gradually and then rapidly, as the nominal smooth surface lambda ratio decreases. The mixed regime, where both roughness and entrainment velocity influence film separation, appears to span a large range in terms of the lambda ratio, from λ = 2 to λ = 0.1. The mean separation between rough surfaces in static contacts has been measured over a range of loads and the problem of the precise definition of lubricant film thickness in rough surface conditions is discussed. © 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.

Understanding grease lubrication
, Tribology Series, Vol: 31, Pages: 573-581, ISSN: 0167-8922Grease lubrication remains a scientifically neglected area of tribology as, in contrast, to fluid film lubrication there has been little progress hi our understanding hi recent years. At present we know little of the mechanisms of film formation, and loss, and the nature of the separating film formed. There is no satisfactory model for greases and thus it is impossible to predict performance, or service life, from simple bulk Theological properties. The aim of this paper is to clarify the mechanisms of film formation by greases in rolling elastohydrodynamic (EHD) contacts. Thus existing lubrication models are reviewed and compared to experimental findings and, hi the light of this, more recent work being carried out hi the Tribology Section is reported. These studies have concentrated on fundamental aspects of grease behaviour in a model bearing contact and have sought to explain the lubrication mechanisms and nature of the film formed. The different film formation mechanisms observed in this work are discussed. Evidence of both hydrodynamic and boundary layer formation is presented and the implications of the different mechanisms of load carrying considered. © 1996 Eisevier Science E.V. All rights reserved.

An investigation into the properties of a thin solid coating using an optical method
, Tribology Series, Vol: 31, Pages: 471-478, ISSN: 0167-8922The elastic modulus of a thin (3 μm) solid coating has been determined by pressing a coated wire against a diamond flat and measuring the contact width optically. The technique neither involves the use of ultra-low loads, nor of costly equipment, and provides results which are accurate enough to be useful in contact stress analysis. © 1996 Elsevier Science E.V.
