Fluorescence imaging of lubricants in microtextured bearings

The work described here concerns the possibility that textured surfaces may reduce coefficients of friction and increase load support within hydrodynamic bearings. This topic is of particular interest in the context of the potential of texturing to reduce friction in internal combustion engines usin...
