    • Tribological Behaviour of Molybdenum Disulphide Nanoparticles 

      Ilie, Filip; Constantin, Tita (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2009)
      l dichalcogenides, are well known for their solid lubricating behaviour. Thin films of MoS2 exhibit extremely low coefficient of friction in dry environments, and are typically applied by mixing in oil, grease or impregnated ...
    • Tribological Behaviour of CO-CR-MO and Uhmwpe the Components of Intervertebral Disc Prosthesis 

      Iliuță-Crețan, Monica; Munteanu, Florin; Gafițanu, Mihai (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2006)
      The Intervertebral Disc Prostheses consist of a modular system and his function is based on low intervertebral friction. As a result of friction forces acting to the spine structures, the intervetebral disc prostheses can ...
    • Tribological Characteristics and Formation of Subsurface Structures of Cast FE-CR-C Alloys with Different Content of Copper, under Sliding Friction 

      Novytskyy, Viktor; Lakhnenko, Volodymyr (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2009)
      Effect of copper contents (0%, 0.4%, and 14%) and modes of heat treatment on initial structure of Fe-Cr-C alloys (C~1.2%, Cr = 17…19%) and subsurface structure of friction layers and tribological characteristics of these ...
    • Tribological Testing Programs for Uhmwpe Matrix Composites 

      Chiculiță, Simona; Rîpă, Minodora; Andrei, Gabriel (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2009)
      This paper aims to review the knowledge on materials and tribology of the ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) composites. The various mechanisms proposed for the wear behaviour of UHMWPE are closely associated ...
    • Ultrasound Action on Strength Properties of Polycrystalline Metals 

      Moraru, Luminița (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2006)
      The mechanical properties of pure aluminum were investigated by tensile test on the sample with average grain size between 60 and 1000 µ m. The stress strain functions given by the models are fitted to the measured points. ...
    • Upon Fretting Behaviour in a Hertzian Point Contact 

      Irimescu, Luminita; Ciornei, Florina; Berthier, Yves (UDJG, 2010)
      Fretting is known as a wear process occurring in a small amplitude cyclic motion of two solid contacting surfaces and it can affect the fatigue resistance of the material, inducing wear and cracking. The kinematics ...
    • 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 ...
    • Vegetal Oils as Lubricating Materials 

      Calomir, Camelia; Ștefănescu, Ioan; Chiriță, George (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2008)
      The success of vegetal oils is related to their biodegradability and reduced toxicity but a wide use is limited by their insufficient stability in time. Biodegradable oils have ecological advantages, being comparable or ...
    • Viscosity of Amorphous Molecular Substances 

      Diaconescu, Emanuel; Zegrean, Vlad Flaviu; Onciul Miron, Oana (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2008)
      Because the great majority of flow units in a liquid behave instantaneously in a solid-like manner, rheological properties of molecular liquids subjected to high pressures may be measured by using corresponding molecular ...
    • Wear and Irreversible Entropy Generation in Dry Sliding 

      Abdel-Aal, Hisham A. (Universitatea "Dunărea de Jos" din Galaţi, 2006)
      This paper examines the relationship between wear and the generation of entropy within the mechanically affected zone, MAZ, of a sliding material. It is postulated that wear is related to irreversible entropy generation ...
    • Wear Behaviour of the AL7175 Alloy under Different Bulk Stress States 

      Buciumeanu, Mihaela; Miranda, A.S; Silva, F.S (Universitatea ”Dunărea de Jos” din Galați, 2008)
      In what concerns the stresses involved in the process, most wear tests (namely those in the pin on disc and the pin on plate configurations) are usually solely concerned with the stress state in the contact originated by ...
    • Wear Prediction of Hip Endoprostheses 

      Căpitanu, Lucian; Onişoru, Justin; Iarovici, Aron (2007)
      The total hip prostheses can be considered as medical-mechanical devices with established failure. The large domain of common activities induces a wide spectrum of loadings in contact prosthetic parts. The contact conditions ...
