Abstract This paper outlines a new approach for finding an asymptotic and exact self-similar solution for the zero and first (without taking into account the melt and considering the melt, respectively) approximation of the wedge-shaped plain bearing with a non-standard support profile of the slide and the low-melting metal coating of the surface. The given approach is based on the flow equation of a ferromagnetic fluid for a «thin layer», the continuity equation, as well as the equation describing the profile of the guide’s molten contour. The proposed method takes into account the dependence of the rheological properties of the lubricant and the melt that have ferromagnetic properties in the laminar flow on pressure. We have succeeded in obtaining accurate analytical dependences for the field of velocities and pressure at zero and first approximations and the ones for the profile of the guide’s molten surface. Besides, we have managed to determine the key performance properties for the slide–guide friction pair, including load-bearing capacity and friction force. Finally, we could assess how the bearing capacity and friction force are influenced by parameters caused by the coating melt adapted to the conditions of the support profile friction and a parameter that characterize the rheological properties of the lubricant.

Abstract In the study, based on the micropolar fluid flow equation for a “thin layer”, the continuity equation, the equation describing the profile of the molten contour of the guide coated with a low-melting metal alloy, and the equation for the mechanical energy dissipation rate, asymptotic and exact self-similar solution has been found for the zero (without considering the melting) and first (considering the melting) approximation of wedge-shaped support with the slider support profile adapted to the friction conditions and the low-melting metal coating of the guide surface. The research has taken into account the pressure dependence of the lubricant rheological properties and the melt having micropolar properties in the laminar flow regime. Analytical dependencies have been obtained for the molten surface profile of the low-melting metal coating of the guide and the field of velocities and pressure for the zero and first approximations. Also, the basic performance characteristics of the friction pair under consideration have been determined: the bearing capacity and the friction force. The impact of parameters determined by the coating melt, adapted to the support profile friction conditions, and the parameter characterizing the pressure dependence of the lubricant viscosity on the bearing capacity and friction force has been estimated.

Abstract The authors propose an asymptotic and exact self-similar solution for zero (without considering the melt) and the first (considering the melt) approximation of a wedge-shaped sliding support with a profile adapted to friction and a fusible metal coating of the guide surface. The solution is based on the equation of a micropolar liquid flow for a “thin layer”, the continuity equation, as well as the equation describing the profile of the molten contour of a guide coated with a fusible metal alloy. The authors have taken into account the formula of the rate of mechanical energy dissipation as well as rheological properties of the lubricant and the melt, which have micropolar properties in the laminar flow mode at incomplete filling of the working gap. Analytical dependences have been obtained for the profile of the molten surface of the guide coated with a low-melting metal alloy, as well as for the velocity and pressure fields at zero and first approximation. In addition, the main operating characteristics of the friction pair under consideration have been determined: the bearing capacity and the friction force. The article contains estimation of the influence of the parameters conditioned by coating melt and adapted to the friction conditions of the support profile, and the parameter characterizing the rheological properties of the lubricant, as well as the length of the loaded area in terms of bearing capacity and friction force.

Abstract The paper presents a study based upon: a Newtonian fluid flow equation (“thin layer”), a continuity equation, and an equation of the molten-profile radius for a shaft coated with a fusible metal alloy; considering a mechanical energy dissipation rate formula, the authors produced an asymptotic and accurate automodel solution for the zero approximation (melting ignored) and first approximation (adjusted for melting) of a radial plain bearing featuring a fusible metal coating and a bearing profile adapted to the specific friction parameters. The paper further presents analytical dependencies describing the molten surface radius, velocity and pressure fields for zero and first approximation. Besides, it determines the key operating parameters of the frictional couple, the bearing capacity, and the friction. It also shows how the parameters arising from the melting of the surface affect the bearing capacity and friction where the bearing surface profile is adapted to the specific conditions of friction.

Phenomena occurring in the contact area between two mating bodies are characterised by high complexity and variability. Comparisons are usually made between parameters such as the coefficient of friction, friction force, wear and temperature in relation to time and friction path. Their correct measurement enables the proper evaluation of tribological properties of materials used in the friction pair. This paper concerns the measurements of basic tribological parameters in the friction of selected polymer composites. Knowing the tribological properties of these composite materials, it will be possible to create proper operating conditions for kinematic friction pairs. This study investigated the coefficients of friction, friction force and temperatures of six polymer composites: cast polyamide PA6 G with oil, PA6 G with MoS2, polyoxymethylene POM with aluminium, polyethylene terephthalate PET with polytetrafluoroethylene PTFE, PTFE with bronze, and PTFE with graphite. The friction surface was also examined using an optical system and computer software for 3D measurements. As a result, PA6-G with oil was found to be the best choice as a composite material for thin sliding coatings.

This paper considers the H∞ control problem for a class of singular Markovian jump systems (SMJSs), where the jumping signal is not always available. The main contribution of this paper introduces a new approach to a mode-independent (MI) H∞ controller by exploiting the nonfragile method. Based on the given method, a unified control approach establishing a direct connection between mode-dependent (MD) and mode-independent controllers is presented, where both existence conditions are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Moreover, another three cases of transition probability rate matrix (TRPM) with elementwise bounded uncertainties, being partially unknown and to be designed are analyzed, respectively. Numerical examples are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

A general model of generalized linear thermo-viscoelasticity for isotropic material is established taking into consideration the rheological properties of the volume. The given model is applicable to three generalized theories of thermoelasticity: the generalized theory with one (Lord-Shulman theory) or with two relaxation times (Green-Lindsay theory) and with dual phase-lag (Chandrasekharaiah-Tzou theory) as well as to the dynamic coupled theory. The cases of thermo-viscoelasticity of Kelvin-Voigt model or thermoviscoelasticity ignoring the rheological properties of the volume can be obtained from the given model. The equations of the corresponding thermoelasticity theories result from the given model as special cases. A formulation of the boundary integral equation (BIE) method, fundamental solutions of the corresponding differential equations are obtained and an example illustrating the BIE formulation is given.

The paper is aimed to the methodology for estimation of service life of mechanical engineering components in the case of elastic-plastic contact of surfaces. Well-known calculation methods depending on physics, theory of probability, the analysis of friction pair’ shape and fit include a number of parameters that are difficult or even impossible to be technologically controlled in the manufacturing of mechanical engineering components. The new approach for wear rate estimation using surface texture parameters as well as physical-mechanical properties and geometric parameters of components is proposed. The theoretical part of the calculations is based on the 3D surface texture principles, the basics of material fatigue theory, the theory of elasticity and the contact mechanics of surfaces. It is possible to calculate the service time of the machine, but the process of running-in of the components is relatively short (less than 5%), therefore, the service time is mainly determined by a normal operating period, which also was used to evaluate this period. The calculated input parameters are technologically and metrologically available and new method for calculating the service time can be used in the design process of the equipment. The results of approbation of the method for estimation service time of mechanical engineering, which prove the applicability of mentioned method, are offered as well.

The paper considers the results of the experimental study of the reinforced concrete beams strengthened by carbon fiber reinforced plastics (the CFRP). Eight reinforced concrete beams of the 80x160 mm section and 1500 mm designed span have been manufactured and tested. The influence of the number of the CFRP layers (strengthening power) on bearing capacity and rigidity under the static loading of beams in the thirds of the span has been studied. The results obtained indicate the increase in bearing capacity of the reinforced beams from 24% up to 55% and the increase in rigidity by 45% for the commonly adopted limiting state, i.e. achieving ultimate deformations in concrete of the compressed zone). The paper underlines the need for using anchor devices in the form of U-shaped binders to ensure the efficiency of the given method of strengthening.

Abstract Problems in the field of engineering design represent an important class of real world problems that typically require a fuzzy and imprecise representation. This article presents and discusses a new approach to model this type of problem, by incorporating linguistic descriptions together with a variety of user-defined trade-off strategies. An interactive computer application is introduced, using stochastic optimization to solve the design task by producing a specially desired output under the given environmental conditions which are partly caused by the personal preferences of the engineer and by the expectations of the customer. It utilizes a randomized evolutionary technique, made suitable for the class of problems at hand, to generate and to optimize design solutions that are later identified by a clustering algorithm. Moreover test problems that were solved by the application are considered. In all cases the good solutions were obtained by evaluating only an extremely small fraction of all possible designs.
