... in Fig. 3 . The behavior of ER fluid and surface irregularities on spherical hybrid journal bearing were numerically simulated by FEM, whereby the iterative Gauss–Seidel approach was used to calculate the value of fluid film pressure distribution in the bearing clearance domain. The new journal center...

... on the maximum operating temperature. In order to improve thermal behavior of polymer gears, a hybrid polymer gear concept is suggested which consists of a polymer gear tooth with a metallic insert to promote heat evacuation from the meshing surface. The material selection based on finite element method (FEM...

... and some parts come to direct contact. If it happens, adhesion can occur, which significantly increases the frictional force and enhances the wear as well. lubrication modeling and simulation wear seal FEM elastomers finite element analysis fracture friction lubrication pressing...

... are applied to show the difference in the calculation of real contact area for the entire surface with other existing models. The statistical model developed to calculate the real contact area and the contact load for the entire surfaces based on the finite element method (FEM) single asperity model...

... Drive Slider FEM Optimization Static Analysis The main computer data storage, such as the hard disk drive (HDD) has several heads (sliders) and disks. The elements that read and write the magnetic records on the disk are mounted on the heads. The main requirements for modern HDDs are high...
