      Tala-Ighil, Nacer; Maspeyrot, Patrick; Fillon, Michel; Bounif, Abdelhamid (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2008)
      Lately, the expanding range of tribological applications to the microscopic levels has revived interest in this field. Actually, little is understood about the subtle effects of variations of a journal bearing’s profile ...
    • Preliminary Results on the use of Palm Oil and Shea Butter in Lubrication Process in Food Industry 

      Bike Mbah, Jean Baptiste; Kamga, Richard; Gheorghieș, Constantin; Praisler, Mirela (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2009)
      In this study, vegetal oils (palm oil and shea butter) are analyzed for their uses in lubrication of mechanical part of machines in food industry. These vegetal oils were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and transmission ...
    • Study on the Rheology of Corn Oil Subjected to Forced Oxidation 

      Şolea, Liviu Cătălin; Creţu, Romică (Universitatea "Dunărea de Jos" din Galaţi, 2014)
      This paper reflects a study on the rheology of corn oil in unoxidized state, subjected to forced oxidation treatment. Using the Rheotest2 system, the variation of dynamic viscosity with temperature and shear rate, using ...
