An experimental model for mixed friction during running-in

Mechanical engineering often uses fluid lubrication to limit friction. Even in the presence of a lubricant, metallic contact between the sliding surfaces may readily occur. In running-in, the oil film thickness can be so thin that contact arises at the summit of asperities, thus, increasing both the...
