EHD lubrication.

Elastohydrodynamic lubrication, discussing film thickness and dependence on fluid hydrodynamics and contact zone deformation

Anderson, W. J.↗

Two-speed wheel-drive system without lubrication

System based on sprockets and toothed belts provides high and low speeds in forward drive and high speed in reverse. It is inexpensive to produce and maintain, light in weight, reliable, and long-lived without lubrication.

Burch, J. L.↗

Self-lubricating fluorine shaft seal material

Lubricating film is produced by a reaction of fluorine with a composite of aluminum oxide and nickel powder. The rate of nickel fluoride generation is proportional to the rate at which the fluoride is rubbed off the surface, allowing the seal to operate with the lowest possible heating.
