Abstract: It is shown that the severe-mild wear transition and the wear rate of 0.45 percent carbon steel pair in dry friction is greatly influenced by the change of normal stiffness from 1 N/mm to ...

Abstract: Shrink fit is a basic and simple technique for joining metal elements. But it is not suitable for ceramic and metal elements, especially at elevated temperatures. For the accurate estimation ...

Abstract: The three dimensional shape effect of asperity on abrasive wear was investigated with in-situ experiments in the scanning electron microscope. The geometry of model asperity was represented by ...
