On the Measurement of Dynamic Properties of Lubricants Under E. H. L. Conditions Using a Disk Machine.

Abstract

Johnson and Roberts (1972) have recently shown how a simple adaptation of the conventional disk machine can be used to measure the viscoelastic properties of lubricants under conditions of elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication. The present paper contains a theoretical treatment of the problem and derives operating formulae pertinent to conditions of low, finite and high Deborah number.
