Oil film pressure is approximated using quadratic polynomial with intercrossing term and then mapped into the Hertz contact zone. Considering the randomness of the EHL, material properties and fatigue strength correction factors, the probabilistic reliability analysis model is established using artificial neural network(ANN). Genetic algorithm(GA) is employed to search the minimum reliability index and the design point by introducing an adjusting factor in penalty function. Reliability sensitivity analysis is completed based on the advanced first order second moment(AFOSM). Numerical example shows that the established probabilistic reliability analysis model could correctly reflect the effect of EHL on contact fatigue of spur gear, and the proposed intelligent method has an excellent global search capability as well as a highly efficient computing performance compared with the traditional Monte Carlo method(MCM).展开更多

However, theoretical analysis in this area remains limited, necessitating further research to explore the impact of boundary slip, particularly thermal slip induced by velocity slip in cases with obvious thermal rise. Additionally, investigating the influence of surface limiting shearing stress on boundary slip is a valuable area of study. This research extends the simple sliding finite line contact thermal elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) model by incorporating velocity slip and thermal slip at boundaries. Firstly, linear slip is examined in three different conditions, and the impact of boundary slip on the lubrication state is analyzed. Building upon this, the study considers the effect of limiting shearing stress on boundary slip and develops a nonlinear slip model. The study conducts a thorough analysis of the influence of limiting shearing stress on the lubrication state in the contact area and reveals that friction reduction can be attained by introducing slip between the static surface and the lubricant. By investigating the impact of boundary slip and limiting shearing stress on thermal EHL under simple sliding conditions, this research puts forward a novel friction reduction approach based on the theory of boundary slip.展开更多

Using solvers developed for Newtonian and Eyringfluids, the film formation behavior originating from viscosity wedge is investigated. The numericalsimulation displays that lubricant film formation induced by viscosity wedge is different from that bythe well-known geometrical wedge with entrainment in classic EHL. The numerical analyses showthat at high opposite sliding speed the viscosity wedge acts as a leading role in film formation, thenon-Newtonian effects can have a pronounced influence on action of the viscosity wedge.展开更多
