This master’s thesis deals with the experimental study of an elastohydrodynamic contact under conditions of insufficient lubricant supply. Starvation level of this type of the contact may be experimentally determined based on the input position of the meniscus, but this way can’t determine all its levels of starvation. Consequent development in the field of tribology achieved theoretical model that can determine at all levels of starvation depending on the thickness of the lubricant film entering the contact, but it is relatively difficult for experimental verification. The main goal of this work is an experimental study and describes the behavior of elastohydrodynamic contact at an exactly defined thickness of the lubricant film at the contact input. The benefit of this work is a validation of that mentioned theoretical model for base oils and greases made from them, and mutual comparison of their behavior.
