INFLUENCE OF LUBRICATION ON ENDURANCE OF ROLLING CONTACTS

Abstract

A review is presented of the present state of development in: (1) elasto-hydrodynamic theory; (2) hydrodynamic film measurements utilizing x-ray techniques; (3) conductivity techniques for the detection of lubricant films; (4) radioisotope techniques for the detection of lubricant films; and (5) endurance studies utilizing the Barwell test machine, with preliminary Barwell test results.
