1. Hot forming tribology : galling of tools and associated problems
Abstract : In recent years, the use of ultra high-strength steels (UHSS) as structural reinforcements and in energy-absorbing systems in automobiles has increased rapidly; mainly in view of their favourable strength to weight ratios. However, due to their high strength, the formability of UHSS is poor, thus complex-shaped UHSS components are invariably produced through hot-metal forming processes. READ MORE

2. Cam Roller Contact : Surfaces and Tribology
Abstract : The automotive industry and the design of engines are strongly ruled by performance and legislation demands. In the valve train, mechanical components such as camshafts and rollers are defined by specifications including more and more constraints concerning their ability to face wear thus prolonging lifetime.

3. Tribology of elastomers
Abstract : In this work, the tribological behaviour of different sealing elastomers has been studied. The influence of aging of a sealing elastomer in different lubricants on its tribological behaviour has been investigated. Tribological behaviour of sealing elastomers in dry condition and the mechanisms occurring in run-in period have been studied. READ MORE

4. Wet clutch tribology : friction characteristics in limited slip differentials
Abstract : In recent years, electronically controlled automotive transmission systems, where wet clutches are used as intelligent differentials, have appeared in the market. These applications impose great demands on the transmission fluids and friction materials used as well as on controllability and vibration preventive (anti-shudder) properties of the clutch systems.

5. Wet clutch tribology : friction characteristics in all-wheel drive differentials
Abstract : In recent past, several electronically controlled automotive transmission systems, where wet clutches are used as intelligent differentials, have emerged on the market. These applications generally impose high stresses on the transmission fluids. READ MORE
