Title

Influence of surface topography on lubrication performance

Summary

Surface topography has a significant influence on the lubrication performance of modern mechanical elements, such as electric vehicle components, particularly in mixed and boundary lubrication regimes.

.

The interaction between surface roughness and lubricant properties determines film formation, load-carrying capacity and friction response.

However, maintaining optimal tribological conditions in real operating environments remains a challenge, often resulting in energy losses and wear.

Advanced experimental and numerical approaches must be developed to understand and optimize surface-lubricant interactions, with the ultimate aim of improving the efficiency, durability and energy efficiency of modern drive systems.
