Many engineering applications rely on lubricated gaps where the hydrodynamic pressure distribution is influenced by cavitation phenomena and elastic deformations. To obtain details about the conditions within the lubricated gap, solvers are required that can model cavitation and elastic deformation effects efficiently when a large amount of discret...

A considerable number of surface texture investigations is based on pin-on-disc tribometers. This work shows that a crucial role in the reproducibility of the results, e.g. Stribeck curves, is played by the geometry of the pin surface. The investigation is based on an elastohydrodynamic model of a pin-on-disc tribometer which is validated with expe...
