Investigations were carried out on three-body abrasive wear behaviour on six aluminium alloys (AA1050, AA2014-T6, AA3003, AA5052, AA6061-T6 and AA6351-T6). Evaluation and comparison of the abrasion resistance of the aluminium alloys were carried out using silica sand of size 150-250 mm by dry sand rubber wheel (DSRW) test rig at room temperature. The tests were performed at constant rubber wheel sliding velocity (V = 2.4 m/s) at different loads (5-20 N). Abrasion studies reveal that abrasive wear increases with increase in load. The wear volume was found to be in linear relationship with sliding distance and the steady state behaviour of the materials was attained around a sliding distance of 5760 m. Correlation of abrasive wear rate with hardness, ultimate strength and percentage elongation at break are reported. Wear mechanisms involved in material removal process were studied with the aid of optical microscope and scanning electron microscope (SEM).

A statistics view of contact pressure distribution for normal contact of fractal surfaces

Huiyi Yang, Yang Xu, Chao Xu

Summary: This study focuses on the impact of dry friction interfaces on the dynamics of jointed structures, particularly on the statistics of contact pressure distribution. Through experimental and simulation analysis, it is found that surface roughness and contact load have significant effects on contact area, contact stiffness, and mean contact pressure.

Influence of the metal coating on nano-cutting process of cubic silicon carbide

Guanglan Hu, Houfu Dai

Summary: The effect of metal coating on the machinability of cubic silicon carbide was investigated using molecular dynamics simulation. The results showed that the type of coating has a significant impact on cutting force, surface morphology, stress, and tool wear. Among the three metals studied, Cu coating had the greatest impact on improving cutting performance.

A new coated self-lubricating spherical plain bearing with high performance and excellent security

Yunfan Liu, Guozheng Ma, Lina Zhu, Cuihong Han, Zhen Li, Bin Zhang, Haichao Zhao, Haidou Wang, Shuying Chen

Summary: The service performance of coated self-lubricating spherical plain bearings can be improved by applying self-lubricating coatings, especially double-sided coatings. The presence of a large-area and complete mixed friction transfer film on the contact surfaces can cause a signal downstage before the signal mutation stage.

Investigation of the tribological properties of POM and UHMWPE radial journal bearings made with different surface quality

Yakup Artun, C. Oktay Azeloglu, Gokhan Taylan

Summary: This article investigates the tribological properties of polymer journal bearings, particularly focusing on radial journal bearings made from UHMWPE and POM materials with different surface qualities. The study examines the performance of these bearings under varying load and speed conditions, and analyzes the relationship between material and surface roughness in tribological performance.
