This study focuses on the formation of carbide-composite coatings using a thermo-reactive diffusion method in molten salt baths. Various tests were conducted to evaluate the coatings, and it was found that the coatings consist of chromium carbides, vanadium carbides, and a carbon-chromium-vanadium triple phase.

Summary: Tantalum-doped graphite-like carbon coatings were obtained by magnetron sputtering, and the effects of Ta content on microstructure, mechanical, and tribological properties were systematically evaluated. Increasing Ta doping resulted in coarser columnar structure, decreased sp(3)C content, and lower hardness and elastic modulus of the coatings, but improved adhesion strength. A Ta-GLC coating with 4.79 at% Ta exhibited the lowest wear rate due to synergistic effects of higher adhesion strength, graphitization structure, and the formation of TaC and Ta nanoclusters.

Summary: The influence of varying Cr3C2 concentrations on the phase composition, microstructure, mechanical performance, and friction and wear behaviors of Ni3Al-based coatings was examined. The high-temperature lubricity of the coatings was attributed to the presence of soft metal Ag, the brittle-plastic transformation of MoO3, and high-temperature solid lubricants such as NiCr2O4 and Ag2MoO4. The second phase strengthening and solute effect significantly improved the hardness, toughness, and wear resistance of the coatings, with 15 wt% Cr3C2 showing the best performance.

Summary: The studies focused on the properties of a multilayer composite coating with high yttrium content (about 40 at.%) based on the (Ti,Y,Al)N system. The hardness, elastic modulus, and resistance to fracture were determined. The coating consists of two cubic solid solutions and exhibited improved wear resistance during turning compared to coatings based on the (Ti,Cr,Al)N system and uncoated tools. Active oxidation processes were observed in the (Ti,Y,Al)N coating during wear, mainly forming yttrium oxide with possible minor formation of titanium and aluminum oxides.

Summary: The article investigates the cracking and oxidation processes in nanolayer coatings of (Cr,Y,Al)N and (Mo,Y, Al)N with a high content of yttrium (Y). The wear resistance of the (Mo,Y,Al)N coated tool was found to be 45% higher than the (Cr,Y,Al)N coated tool and 30% higher than the (Ti,Cr,Al)N reference coated tool. The (Cr,Y,Al)N coating showed active formation of cracks, while oxidation wear dominated in the (Mo,Y,Al)N coating. Therefore, coatings with materials characterized by increased tendency to oxidize can be effectively used if oxidation-resistant layers protect the oxidation-prone layers from active contact with oxygen.

Summary: In this study, a elasto-plastic constitutive model of friction incorporating the concept of superloading surface was developed based on the subloading friction model. The proposed model achieves a smooth transition of friction by describing the evolution rule of structure, treating the state with static friction coefficient larger than kinetic friction coefficient as the bulkiness of structure. The positive definiteness of the plastic multiplier, loading condition, and material parameters were derived, and the validity of the proposed model in accordance with the subloading-friction model was confirmed through a stick-slip simulation of a mass-spring system.

Summary: This paper investigates the influence of preparation strategies on the lubrication properties of surface textures. Three laser scanning strategies are proposed to achieve a sinusoidal textured surface, and the evolution of surface structure and chemical composition is discussed. The findings show that ridge structures enhance anti-wear properties but also increase the friction coefficient. However, the oil cover preparation method prevents the formation of ridges and improves wettability.

Summary: This study presents a systematic approach to generating control signals for a tactile simulator that simulate the touch of textile fabrics. By using a friction modulation tactile surface and acquiring forces from real surfaces with artificial finger mimicking fingerprints, control signals are generated and processed in the frequency domain before sending them to the tactile stimulator. The study focuses on the potential benefits of incorporating fingerprint information in fabric simulations to achieve a more realistic tactile perception. A sensory analysis with 36 participants using the generated control signals showed better discrimination without fingerprint information.
