Tribology of bone tissue culture in bioreactor.
PublicationOpracowano system tribologiczny powstających sił tarcia w bioreaktorze. Pomimo, że wartości sił tarcia osiągają wartości poniżej 0,1 N to mają one decydujący wpływ na wartość porostu tkanki. Mechanika opływu tkanki cieczą o właściwościach biologicznych nienewtonowskich oraz hydrodynamiczna teoria opływu warstwy przyściennej jest bazą wyznaczania parametrów trybologicznychniniejszej pracy.

Ecology In Tribology: Selected Problems of Eliminating Natural Oil-Based Lubricants from Machine Friction Couples
PublicationThe elimination of mineral oil-based lubricants from machines has multiple beneficial effects on the natural environment. Firstly – these lubricants are a direct threat to the environment in the event of leaks; secondly – their elimination reduces the demand for crude oil from which they are obtained. In addition, in many cases, e.g. when replacing traditional lubricants with water, friction losses in the bearings can also be reduced...

Calculation of flatness errors formed on the tool during finishing machining by lapping. Second International Tribology Conference, SITC 2002.
PublicationPłaskość przedmiotów obrabianych zależy głównie od płaskości narzędzia stosowanego w docieraniu. Orientacja przedmiotu na docieraku musi być wyznaczona w celu określenia korelacji pomiędzy błędami płaskości obu powierzchni. Metoda wyznaczania błędów niepłaskości narzędzia przedstawiona została w referacie. Pokazane zostały przykładowe położenia przedmiotów o różnych kształtach na czynnej powierzchni docieraka z błędem wklęsłości.

Experimental comparison of the transition speed of a hydrodynamic journal bearing lubricated with oil and magnetorheological fluid
PublicationA journal bearing test bench is used to find the transition speed between the hydrodynamic and mixed lubrication regimes for a modified magnetorheological (MR) fluid. It is shown that the transition speed of the bearing can be reduced by applying a local magnetic field near minimum film when it is lubricated with the MR fluid, and that this will only marginally increase friction. The lubricating performance of the MR fluid is compared...

Theoretical study of thermofrictional oscillations due to negative friction-temperature characteristic
PublicationAnalytical study on oscillations of a body on a moving counterbody has been done by assuming imperfect frictional thermal contact and friction that decreases with contact temperature. It has been shown that stick-slip oscillation occurs due to decrease of friction coefficient when the body moves in the opposite direction to the counterbody. Dynamical characteristics, such as conditions for stable sliding and limit cycles, have...

To predict its occurrence, the motion of a body of a one-degree-of-freedom system with friction is investigated about the steady sliding equilibrium position. The motion equation is formulated with the friction coefficient dependent on the sliding velocity and contact temperature changing due to transient heat conduction...

Marine propeller shaft bearings under low-speed conditions: water vs. oil lubrication
PublicationThe bearings used in shipbuilding, hydropower, and water pumps have undergone a metamorphosis in recent decades. Because of environmental regulations, lubrication with grease or mineral oil is prohibited. Thus, the standard solutions include water-lubricated bearings with polymer bushings or sealed systems lubricated with oil. When properly designed, assembled, and operated, bearings can operate reliably for years. However, specific...

Influence of local bush wear on water lubricated sliding bearing load carrying capacity
PublicationOne of main problems concerning water-lubricated bearings is their durability. There are known cases of bearings with life time measured in decades, and some, whose refurbishment was necessary just days after start-up. Obtaining stable fluid film friction plays key role in the durability of these bearings. Unfortunately, their load-carrying capacity is limited due to water's low-viscosity. The conducted experimental...
