Abstract

A living and non-living material bodies exhibit several arthritis problems, friction etc. So one can control the friction by hydrodynamic principle. Simply lubrication method by just pouring good lubricant wherever over rubbing or by moving relative links or parts. This paper deals with solution to the above problem is usually lubricant, lubricator and lubrication method. Also further study is carried over non-living material example is on heavy duty plants driers for journal bearings. Synovial acts as lubricant for living body. The synovial fluid exhibits a non-Newtonian pseudo plastic behavior.
