• Aspects Concerning Contact Stresses from a Dental Articulator Joint 

      Ciornei, Florina; Alaci, Stelian; Muscă, Ilie; Frunză, Gheorghe; Irimescu, Luminița; Cerlincă, Delia (UDJG, 2010)
      A dental articulator is a mechanical device, which simulates the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). The articulator is important because it replicates the basic revolve action of the upper and lower mandibles, as well as ...
    • Numerical Modelling of 3D Impact 

      Stelian, Alaci; Diaconescu, Emanuel; Ciornei, Florina; Irimescu, Luminița; Cerlincă, Delia; Rusu, Ovidiu (UDJG, 2010)
      The paper presents a virtual device designed for studying tri-dimensional impact. The main goal of the work is to present a solution for finding the coefficient of restitution for the tri-dimensional case of a sphere ...
    • Upon Friction on a Ball Bearing - Outer Raceway Contact - I. Uniform Loading of the Balls 

      Irimescu, Luminița; Diaconescu, Emanuel; Berthier, Yves (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2006)
      The paper advances an analytical model to evaluate the effect of micro-slip on the friction losses at the interface of a normally loaded rolling contact. The model validation was done by comparing the theoretical results ...
    • Upon Radial Fretting of Dissimilar Materials 

      Ciornei, Florina; Irimescu, Luminița; Diaconescu, Emanuel (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2006)
      The paper presents a state of the art concerning radial fretting for dissimilar bodies and fretting damage. Four simple fretting models are defined in the literature: tangential, radial, rotational and torsional. Only the ...
