On the λ ratio range of mixed lubrication

TL;DR: Mixed lubrication is a mode of fluid lubrication in which both hydrodynamic lubricant film and rough surface asperity contact coexist as mentioned in this paper, and mixed lubrication problems are usually associated with signifi...

Erosional origin of drumlins and megaridges

TL;DR: The erodent layer hypothesis (ELH) as discussed by the authors proposes that drumlinization leaves no substantial stratigraphic record because it is primarily an erosional process that cuts an unconformity across pre-existing bed materials.

Running-in and micropitting behaviour of steel surfaces under mixed lubrication conditions

TL;DR: In this paper, the running-in of hardened steel surfaces under mixed lubrication conditions was investigated using in-situ profilometry, and it was found that the most prominent asperity tips undergo plastic deformation during the initial loading cycles.

Abrasion of tungsten carbide hardmetals using hard counterfaces

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of tests that were performed using both a modified ASTM G65 test rig and an ASTM B611 test rig were used to support the development of a new ISO abrasion wear test.

Wear performance of PEEK–carbon fabric composites with strengthened fiber–matrix interface

TL;DR: In this article, the powder-prepreg method was used to develop composites with untreated and cold remote nitrogen-oxygen (05%) plasma (CRNOP) treated carbon fabric (CF) (67-68 ¼ ) and poly-ether-etherketone (PEEK) followed by the evaluation of physical and mechanical properties.
