His research interests spanned a very wide range of topics, most of them involving energetic phenomena. These areas included the strength properties of solids, fracture growth, impact and erosion phenomena, shock physics, reactivity of solids, explosive initiation, lasers, acoustics and medical physics. Within the Physics and Chemistry of Solids Group in the Cavendish Laboratory, he developed the best-equipped high-speed camera facility in any university in Europe, including seven that achieved frame rates in excess of 106 frames per second. In addition to the cameras, extensive use was made of ultrasonics, optical and electron microscopy, mass spectroscopy and thermal techniques. He played an important national role in advising the Ministry of Defence on a wide range of topics in energetic phenomena and materials science, which led to practical engineering solutions.

  • Friction Modifier Additives

    Friction Modifier Additives

    FRICTION MODIFIER ADDITIVES Hugh Spikes Tribology Group, Imperial College London, UK ABSTRACT The need for energy efficiency is leading to the growing use of additives that reduce friction in thin film boundary and mixed lubrication conditions. Several classes of such friction modifier additive exist, the main ones being organic friction modifiers, functionalised polymers, soluble organo-molybdenum additives and dispersed nanoparticles. All work in different ways. This paper reviews these four main types of lubricant friction modifier additive and outlines their history, research and the mechanisms by which they are currently believed to function. Aspects of their behaviour that are still not yet fully understood are highlighted. Keywords: Friction; lubricant additives; OFM; molybdenum additives; functionalised polymers; nanoparticles; boundary lubrication 1. INTRODUCTION In order to reduce energy consumption and thus CO2 emissions it is necessary to increase the energy efficiency of mechanical systems and an important way to achieve this is to design lubricants that give low friction in machine components. One design approach is to optimise liquid lubricant rheology so as to minimise hydrodynamic shear, churning and pumping losses. In practice this often means reducing lubricant viscosity to the lowest possible value consonant with maintaining fluid or mixed film lubrication. Another approach is to add small proportions of friction modifier additives to the lubricant in order to reduce friction in the boundary and mixed lubrication regimes. In practice both of these approaches are best applied concurrently since, as lubricant viscosity is progressively reduced, contacts are separated by thinner and thinner hydrodynamic films and so operate increasingly the regimes where friction modifier additives are effective.

Memorial Tributes: Volume 12 D A V I D T A B O R 1913–2005 Elected in 1995 “For contributions to the theory of tribology, hardness, and surface physics.” BY IAN M. HUTCHINGS AND BRIAN J. BRISCOE SUBMITTED BY THE NAE HOME SECRETARY WE WERE SADDENED to learn of the death, on November 26, 2005, of David Tabor FRS. He died in Cambridge, England, at the age of 92 after a long illness. One of the foremost tribologists of his generation, he was also a major figure in physics and a remarkable person. He was the author of the first paper published in the first issue ofWear, in 1957, and he maintained remarkable ties to that journal, where this obituary was first published. David Tabor (later known as DT) was born on October 23, 1913, in London, England, to parents who had emigrated from Russia; his father had been an armorer in the Russian imperial army. After undergraduate study at the Regent Street Polytechnic and the University of London (in Imperial College), he moved to Cambridge in 1936 to undertake research in the Department of Chemistry under the supervision of Frank Philip Bowden, a collaboration that lasted until Bowden’s death in 1968. Their first joint publication in 1939 on the area of contact between surfaces established the crucial point that the real area was generally much smaller than the apparent area. This basic principle was fundamental to much of their subsequent work. 299 Copyright National Academy of Sciences.

CLAUDE LEVI-STRAUSS´ Abstract The reduction of the interfacial friction between two surfaces in relative motion is a prerequisite for the proper functioning of many systems, ranging from machine parts to human joints. While the lubrication of two contacting surfaces primarily aims at the reduction of friction and wear, either by a separation of the surfaces by means of a fluid film or by introducing a layer of low shear strength between them, additional requirements such as the environmental compatibility of a lubricant or the energy efficiency of tribological systems have become important during recent years.

    PREDICTION of POWER LOSSES in an AUTOMOTIVE GEARBOX INCORPORATING a THERMALLY COUPLED LUBRICATION MODEL’ and the Work Presented in It Are My Own

    PREDICTION OF POWER LOSSES IN AN AUTOMOTIVE GEARBOX INCORPORATING A THERMALLY COUPLED LUBRICATION MODEL by Athanasios Christodoulias This dissertation is submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Diploma of Imperial College (DIC) in the Tribology group Department of Mechanical Engineering Imperial College London June 2017 ABSTRACT The continuous tightening of environmental standards, and in particular the stricter vehicle CO2 emission regulations, have put increased pressure on passenger vehicle manufacturers to develop more efficient components. One way of improving fuel consumption and reducing emissions in a vehicle is by reducing the friction-related power loss in major components such as the engine and the transmission. Between 5% and 6% of the total fuel energy that the car converts is lost through friction in the transmission and ends up as heat being absorbed by the transmission lubricant. The principal aim of this project was developing a method to accurately predict power losses in the gearbox -the main transmission component- while at the same time having the ability to assess the influence of lubricant properties on the gearbox efficiency. For this purpose, a thermally coupled numerical model was developed, incorporating lubricant parameters extracted from rheological tests. The model calculates the friction coefficient in gear elastohydrodynamic (EHL) contacts and then uses it in an iterative scheme to predict in-contact and bulk temperatures as well as power losses. Finally, the model’s predictions for gears are coupled to current experimentally derived models for bearing and churning losses. The method has been applied to a single speed gearbox and a manual six speed automotive gearbox.
