Machinery exclusive of prime movers

  • Cracked Rotorsby Nicolo Bachschmid; P. Pennacchi; E. Tanzi

    Springer 2010; US$ 99.99

    Cracks can develop in rotating shafts and can propagate to relevant depths without affecting consistently the normal operating conditions of the shaft. In order to avoid catastrophic failures, accurate vibration analyses have to be performed for crack detection. The identification of the crack location and depth is possible by means of a model based... more...

  • Practical Variable Speed Drives and Power Electronicsby Malcolm Barnes

    Elsevier Science 2003; US$ 65.95

    Typical practical applications of VSDs in process control and materials handling, such as those for pumping, ventilation, conveyers, compressors and hoists are covered in detail. · Provides a fundamental understanding of the installation, operation and troubleshooting of Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) · Includes practical coverage of key topics such... more...

  • Simulation von Tribosystemenby Dirk Bartel

  • Hydrostatic Lubricationby R. Bassani; B. Piccigallo

    Elsevier Science 1992; US$ 215.00

    Hydrostatic lubrication is characterized by the complete separation of the conjugated surfaces of a kinematic pair, by means of a film of fluid, which is pressurized by an external piece of equipment. Its distinguishing features are lack of wear, low friction, high load capacity, a high degree of stiffness and the ability to damp vibrations. This... more...

  • Tribological Design of Machine Elementsby D. Berthe; D. Dowson; M. Godet; C.M. Taylor

    Elsevier Science 1989; US$ 200.00

    On previous occasions each Symposium has focused attention on a current and significant research topic, usually reflecting the interests of the Leeds or Lyon research groups, however this time the main focus was on the vitally important subject of technology transfer, providing the 154 delegates from 21 countries with the rare opportunity to discuss... more...

  • Fluid Film Lubricationby D. Berthe; D. Dowson; M. Godet; C.M. Taylor

    Elsevier Science 1987; US$ 170.00

    The thirteenth Leeds-Lyon Tribology Symposium was devoted to the topic of Fluid Film Lubrication in celebration of the centenary of the publication of the classical paper by Professor Osborne Reynolds in which he identified the mechanism of hydrodynamic lubrication. These proceedings contain more than seventy papers, written by authors from all over... more...

  • Interface Dynamicsby D. Berthe; D. Dowson; M. Godet; C.M. Taylor

    Elsevier Science 1988; US$ 200.00

    Many tribologists are today not only explicitly concerned with interface action but also with interface composition. This proceedings volume presents a timely review on topics ranging from interface dynamics to interface elimination, covering all factors such as contact stress fields, interface rheology, and boundary slip, that control the passage... more...

  • Modern Tribology Handbook, Two Volume Setby Bharat Bhushan

    CRC Press 2000; US$ 239.95

    This two-volume handbook discusses modern tribology, with an emphasis on all industrial applications. The first 15 chapters cover the fundamentals including surface physics and roughness, solid contact mechanics, adhesion, friction, contact temperatures, wear, lubrication and liquid lubricants, friction and wear measurement techniques, design of fr more...

  • Nanotribology and Nanomechanicsby Bharat Bhushan

    Springer 2008; US$ 139.99

    Offers an introduction to the principles of nanotribology and nanomechanics and applications to magnetic storage systems and MEMS/NEMS. This book covers measurement techniques, their applications, and theoretical modelling of interfaces, each beginning their contributions with macro- and progressing to microconcepts. more...
