An Adhesive Wear Model for Gears in Mixed Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication
In this study, an adhesive wear model for a gear drive in mixed elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) is proposed. The mixed-EHL model combines the average Reynolds equation with the ZMC rough-surface contact model to determine the asperity contact pressure. By incorporating the fractional film defect into the Archard w...
