This paper innovatively proposes the Black Kite Algorithm (BKA), a meta-heuristic
optimization algorithm inspired by the migratory and predatory behavior of the black kite …

Nowadays many friction pairs in engineering inevitably work under mixed lubrication
regime, during which both hydrodynamic lubrication and asperities contact share the heavy …

The multi-disc wet clutch is widely used in transmission systems as it transfers the torque
and power between the gearbox and the driving engine. During service, the buckling of the …

A fluid-solid convective heat transfer model is constructed according to the velocity
distributed calculation of lubricant in clutch groove cavity. Considering the characteristics of …

To predict the life of the clutch friction plate, friction characteristics of the friction plate and the
steel sheet assembly are analyzed in the full life cycle. A contact model of the friction surface …

High temperatures are generated due to the sliding contacts between the rubbing surfaces
of the friction clutch system. In this work, by considering the effective thermal contact …

Premature failure of conjunction gear in vehicle was reported frequently. The fractured of
tooth of the conjunction gear in a vehicle was detected. Marco and micro analysis, chemical …

In this article developed mathematical model that includes friction occurrence on spline
connections is presented. The work also contains results of experimental research on torque …

Considering the influence of the contact and friction for buckling deformation, a
comprehensive model is proposed to study the timing-varying thermodynamic …

As an essential part of the transmission, the life of the clutch directly affects the stability of the
transmission. In this paper, a finite element model and a thermodynamic numerical model of …
