The wear and thermo-elastohydrodynamic behavior of thrust washer bearings under non-axisymmetric loads

The goal of this work is to investigate the physical mechanisms that distress thrust washer bearings through physical modeling and numerical techniques. The thrust washer bearing is subjected to non-axisymmetric loads within the planetary gear sets of automatic transmissions in automobiles. In pra...
