MIXED LUBRICATION ANALYSIS OF TAPERED ROLLER BEARINGS AND CROWNING PROFILE OPTIMIZATION BASED ON NUMERICAL RUNNING-IN METHOD

Mixed Lubrication Analysis of Tapered Roller Bearings and Crowning Profile Optimization Based on Numerical Running-In Method

Tapered roller bearings (TRBs) are widely used in heavy-load rotating machinery.One of the technical problems in TRBs is the existence of sharp spikes of the contact pressure in the vicinity of the two ends of the tapered rollers.To suppress the pressure spikes at the roller ends, a straight roller profile is crowned in cylindrical whelen arges spo

Transcriptomic insights into the roles of the transcription factors Clr1, Clr2 and Clr4 in lignocellulose degradation of the thermophilic fungal platform Thermothelomyces thermophilus

Introduction:Thermothelomyces thermophilus, formerly known as Myceliophthora thermophila, is used in industry to produce lignocellulolytic enzymes and heterologous proteins.However, the transcriptional network driving the expression of these proteins remains elusive.As a first step to systematically uncover this network, we investigated growth, pro
