Dr.-Ing. Ricardo Lühe

Forschungs- und Entwicklungsingenieur Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg

I studied in Magdeburg in the field of Mechanical Engineering and did my phd there in the field of Tribology (Dr.-Ing.) in 2024. Right now I am at the university of magdeburg for my postdoc researching churning losses in grease lubricated rolling berarings.

Wind Turbine Bearings: Day 1 - 27/08/2025

16:30 Grease aging in Rolling Bearings

  • Mechanisms of grease aging, including oil separation, thickener degradation, and thermo￾oxidation
  • Use of diagnostic tools such as IR (Infrared Spectroscopy), AES (Atomic Emission Spectroscopy), or NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) for in-depth lubricant analysis and bearing health assessment
  • Influence of load and tribological subsystems on specific mechanisms of grease aging
