چکیده
Rolling element bearings are required to operate in a variety of use cases that determine voltage potentials will form between the rolling elements and races. When electrical field strength causes dielectric breakdown intermediary lubricant film discharge can damage bearing surfaces. To reduce prevalence severity machining an improved understanding coupled mechanical behavior is necessary. This paper aims improve problem through combined elastohydrodynamic electrostatic numerical study charged conjunctions. The results show effect amplitude reduction means for typical surface topographies found EHL conjunctions maximum adequately predicted by minimum thickness potential difference. also indicates width elevated region dependent on parameters which could have important implications magnitude current density during breakdown.

Near-Field Imaging of Infinite Rough Surfaces
This paper is concerned with an inverse rough surface scattering problem in near-field optical imaging, which is to reconstruct the scattering surface with a resolution beyond the diffraction limit. The surface is assumed to be a small and smooth deformation of a plane surface. Based on a transformed field expansion, the boundary value problem with complex scattering surface is converted into a...
متن کاملNear-Field Imaging of Infinite Rough Surfaces in Dielectric Media
This paper is concerned with an inverse surface scattering problem in near-field optical imaging, which is to reconstruct the scattering surface of a dielectric medium with a resolution beyond the diffraction limit. It is a nontrivial extension of the authors’ work on near-field imaging of infinite rough surfaces from impenetrable to penetrable media [G. Bao and P. Li, SIAM J. Appl. Math., 73 (...
متن کاملIncremental stiffness and electrical contact conductance in the contact of rough finite bodies.
If two half spaces are in contact, there exists a formal mathematical relation between the electrical contact resistance and the incremental elastic compliance. Here, this relation is extended to the contact of finite bodies. In particular, it is shown that the additional resistance due to roughness of the contacting surfaces (the interface resistance) bears a similar relation to the additional...
متن کاملHigh Order Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication Line Contact Problems
In this paper a high order Discontinuous Galerkin method is used to solve steady-state isothermal line contact elastohydrodynamic lubrication problems. This method is found to be stable across a wide range of loads and is shown to permit accurate solutions using just a small number of degrees of freedom provided suitable grids are used. A comparison is made between results obtained using this p...
متن کاملUsing Adjoint Error Estimation Techniques for Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication Line Contact Problems
The use of an adjoint technique for goal-based error estimation described by Hart et al. (this journal, volume 47, pages 1069–1074) is extended to the numerical solution of free boundary problems that arise in elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL). EHL systems are highly nonlinear and consist of a thin-film approximation of the flow of a non-Newtonian lubricant which separates two bodies that ar...
