Learning Outcomes
After completing the course, the student will be able to identify and interpret the main lubrication mechanisms in machine systems. The student can apply them to the dimensioning and design of lubrication condition in gears and bearings. In terms of the other considered machine elements, the student will be able to identify the basic lubrication mechanism and its main effects on dimensioning and performance.
