Understanding on the lubrication properties under charged conditions is not only one of the
important fundamental research directions in the lubrication field, but also is of great …

The electrical capacitance of lubricated contacts and bearings is a parameter that has been
investigated for many years [1–3]. The focus of these investigations was to examine the film …

This paper investigates breakdown characteristics in the bearings of variable speed electric
drive trains. The analyses reveal that breakdown phenomena previously known from high …

Research on the effects of applied electrical potential on friction and wear, a topic
sometimes termed “Triboelectrochemistry”, has been reviewed. Historically, most such …

This paper reviews the electrical methods to evaluate lubrication, with the focus on
elastohydrodynamic applications. The methods are based on the measurement of the …

Electrical contacts, although critically important for a wide range of applications, are
susceptible to degradation due to fretting corrosion, especially when sliding and vibrations …

The influencing parameters considered in the present state of the art for determining the
thickness of the lubricating film and the lubrication regime under tribological conditions are …

The formation mechanism of electrical pitting on the lubricated surface of steel pair was
investigated, and the threshold condition to avoid the occurrence of electrical pitting was …

The paper presents a review of research data published during last 40-year period in the
field of electrical contact lubrication. The paper examines the role of lubrication in corrosion …

At the interface between a solid and a following liquid, charge migration within the electric
double layer causes an electro-viscous force to develop which manifests itself as an …
