12、mitted without license from IHS-,-,-Preface 1iN AN EFFORT to further the advances in the complex and multidisci-plinary subject of lubrication, the National Aeronautics and SpaceAdministration (NASA) inaugurated in 1967 an interdisciplinary lubri-cation symposium series. The first meeting of the ser

13、ies, held in San An-tonio, Texas, on November 28-30, 1967, was devoted to a critical ap-praisal of-the level of understanding and the needed research in the areaof sliding friction and wear under unlubricated and boundary-lubrica-tion conditions.* The second meeting, held in Cleveland, Ohio, on No-v

14、ember 19-21, 1968, again emphasized unlubricated and boundary-lubri-cated sliding friction and wear but attempted to focus attention on someselected theoretical and practical problems by discussing in small work-ing groups their implications and possible methods of attack.*Having thus provided for a

15、n examination of sliding friction and wearunder unlubricated and boundary-lubrication conditions in considerablebreadth and depth, the Steering Committee recommended to NASA inSeptember 1968 that further attention be turned to an evaluation of thecollective understanding and the needed research in t

16、he lubrication ofhighly loaded machine elements in a combined rolling and sliding situation.The recommendation was accepted by NASA and, accordingly, a sym-posium entitled Interdisciplinary Approach to the Lubrication of Con-centrated Contacts was held on thc founds of Rensselaer PolytechnicInstitut

17、e, Troy, New York, on Jul) 15-17, 1969.As in the case of the two previous meetings, this symposium againemployed the technique of dividing the whole area into a number ofrelatively manageable topics, with each topic introduced by an invitedlecture followed by general discussions. Moreover, interdisc

18、iplinary ap-proach was emphasized in the selection of the invited lecturers and oftb, -, rest of the invited participants. Of the 94 persons who accepted theinvitation to participate in thi 3anposium, about 60 percent were lubrica-tion research engineers, 15 pe_ ent were basic scientists, and 25 per

19、centwere design and development engineers.1968.* Bisson, E. E.; and Ku, P. M., eds. : Friction and Wear Interdisciplinary Work-shop.

20、ningful discussions, the lectures were pre-printed and mailed to each preregistered participant 1 month prior tothe meeting. During the meeting each topic was allotted an equal divisionof time between the lecture and the discussions.The invited lectures were all over 6 months in preparation. After r

21、e-view by the Steering Committee and appropriate revisions by the lec-turers, 14 of the 16 lectures were issued as preprints. The two lecturesnot available for preprinting were “The Structure of Solids“ by H. G. F.Wilsdorf (University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Virginia) and “Effectof Materials-M

22、aterials Science Viewpoint“ by S. Eisner (Norton Com-pany, Troy, New York). Professor Wilsdorf and Mr. Eisner presentedtheir respective lectures orally at the meeting; both of which were wellreceived. Regrettably their lectures are still not available for publication.For various reasons, three of th

23、e lecturers were unable to be presentat the meeting to deliver their lectures in person. They were D. Dowson(The University of Leeds, Leeds, England), whose lecture “Elastohydro-dynamic Lubrication“ was given by A. Dyson (Shell Research Limited,Thornton Research Center, Chester, England); H. Blok, w

24、hose lecture“The Postulate about the Constancy of Scoring Temperature“ was givenby P. M. Ku (Southwest Research Institute, San Antonio, Texas); andH. Eyring (University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah), whose lecture“The Structure of Liquids“ was given by K. Liang (Eastman KodakCompany, Rochester, New

25、 York). However, as in the other cases, writtendiscussions on these lectures were submitted to the respective lecturersafter the meeting, and the closures were written by the lecturers.It should be mentioned here that the discussions that actually tookplace during the three-day symposium were very l

26、ively and provocative.All participants were requested to submit in writing their discussions orcomments on any of the lectures for publication and for the lecturersrebuttal. Unfortunately, in spite of the lively discussions at the meeting,not many written discussions were received. Accordingly, the

27、discussionspublished herein represent only a fraction of those worthy of record.i should like to acknowledge here my personal indebtedness to themembers of the Steering Committee for their guidance in the planningof the program, for their review of the invited lectures, and for theirassistance that

28、contributed toward the success of the symposium.On behalf of the Steering Committee, I should like to thank the Rens-selaer Polytechnic Institute for hosting this symposium. Above all, to alllecturers and discussors without whose active support the symposiumcould not possibly have come into being, o

Almost allof these modes are significantly affected by the ma

Rolling-element bearings appeared much later and, whileseeming to be a direct plagiarism from Leonardo da Vinci a full two cen-turies before (ref. 2)

Rowe stated that with the adoption of suchbearings to. “wheel carriages, one Horse now will do the labourOf two, and, i will suppose that there will be oc

39、oblems associated with concentrated contact were uncov-ered, or it was found that just as nmch cost was absorbed by a horse thatwas not working as for one that was.Since that time the rolling element bearing, the gear, and the cam andtappet have yielded to experimental development to a state highlys
