The prediction of fretting wear is a significant issue for the design of contacting mechanical components such as flexible couplings and splines, jointed structures and so on. In our earlier study, we developed a numerical model to predict the fretting wear using boundary element method. The developed algorithm needs experimental fretting wear coefficients and friction coefficients between two moving materials to get more reliable results. In this study, therefore, we demonstrated the measurement method of the fretting wear coefficients and friction coefficients using disk on plate tribometer with piazo actuator and gap sensor. For four different material combinations, the fretting wear coefficients and friction coefficients are acquired through the fretting wear experiment and the analysis of the measured values. Thess results are useful to predict the quantative fretting wear rate in the developed algorithm.

취성재료의 마멸천이기구를 규명하기 위해 반무한탄성체상에 표면균열이 존재할 때 그 위를 헤르쯔 접촉하중이 이동할 경우를 해석모델로 하여 선형파괴역할을 도입하여 해석하였다. 해석방법으로는 표면균열을 인상전위의 연속분포로 치환하여 Erdogan-Gupta의 방법으로 균열끝면의 응력확대계수를 구하여, 취성재료의 균열전파조건인 Erdogan-Sih Criterion을 사용하여 그 전파특성을 해석하였다. 본 논문에서는 마멸율이 적은 마멸에서 마멸율이 큰 마멸로 전이할 때 급격한 표면손상과 마찰계수의 급격한 증가를 동반하므로 이에 대한 해석에 중점을 두었다. 해석결과는 접촉하중과 마찰계수의 증가는 표면균열의 전파를 야기시켜 대규모 마멸입자를 생성시키게 됨을 보여주었다.

We analyzed the wear characterization of $Si_3N_4$ ceramics according to the amount of added $SiO_2$ nanocolloid. The test specimen was prepared by hot-press sintering at 35 MPa and 2123 K in an $N_2$ gas atmosphere for 1 h. A wear test was performed with a block-on-ring tester, and the test conditions were as follows: (1) the ring with a diameter of 35 mm had a rotational speed of 50 rpm; (2) the load was 9.8 N; and (3) the temperature was $25^{\circ}C$. The test results show that $Si_3N_4$ ceramics have a friction coefficient of about 1.0 and a wear loss of about 0.02 mm. Of the specimens used this study, the test specimen with 1.3 wt% of added $SiO_2$ nanocolloid has the best wear resistance because it has the lowest friction coefficient and the smallest wear loss. This specimen also has the highest Vickers hardness and bending strength. In this study, the friction coefficient is inversely proportional to the hardness and bending strength.

SCM415 steel for the control valve undergoes wear because of continuous movement between the valve and valve case. The wear of the valve interrupts the performance of the valve, and decreases the service life. In this study, wear characteristics of the as-received and carburized SCM415 steels are evaluated. The wear tests are conducted for various temperatures and loads using a reciprocating wear tester. From these results, wear loss, specific wear rate, and coefficient of friction are analyzed. The wear mechanism was analyzed by SEM. The interaction effects between loads and temperatures on wear loss are determined for analysis of variance using MINITAB.

Under unlubricated condition, the friction and wear tests of silicon nitride and zirconia manufactured by HIP were carried out at room temperature. The wear resistance of silicon nitride was superior to that of zirconia under low load, whereas the wear resistance of zirconia was superior to that of silicon nitride under high load. Wear model of ceramic was suggested by the microscopic SEM observation of worn surfaces and debris. Theoretical analysis and discussions based on linear fracture mechanics were made out about this ceramic wear model. From the theoretical analysis, a new nondimensional parameter, Scf, was introduced to estimate wear rate of ceramics. This new nondimentional parameter consists of contact pressure, surface defect of contact material, frictional coefficient and fracture toughness.

기계가공프로세스에서 절삭공구의 마멸과 채터진동은 공작기계의 가동율과 생산성을 크게 저해하는 요인이 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 공구마멸과 채터현상이 혼재하는 상황에서, 이들 두 현상을 동시에 검출하는데, AE 및 가속도센서에서 검출된 신호와 AR계수 및 주파수대역 평균에너지를 특징입력으로 하는 인공신경회로망을 이용하였다. 그 결과, 공구마멸과 채터현상에 대응하는 서로 다른 신호특징의 차이를 동시에 식별하는 데 인공신경 회로망의 유용성을 입증하였으며, 시계열모델의 AR계수(70 .approx. 90%)보다는 주파수대역에너지법의 평균에너지 (80 .approx. 100%)를 신경회로망의 특징입력으로 하는 경우가 높은 성공률을 나타내었다.

Plasma-sprayed Cr$_2$O$_3$-based coatings containing MoO$_3$were studied to gain a better understanding of the influence of MoO$_3$composition in the coatings on their tribological behaviour. A reciprocal type tribo-tester was employed to examine friction and wear behavior of the specimens at room temperature. The physical characteristics of worn surfaces were investigated by scanning electron microscopy and chemical composition of the coating surfaces was analyzed using a X-ray photoelectron spectrometer. The results showed that friction coefficient of the MoO$_3$-added coatings were lower than those without MoO$_3$addition. However pure Cr$_2$O$_3$coating showed the lowest wear loss at the self-mated test. The larger protecting layers were observed at the worn surface of plasma spray coated specimens with MoO$_3$addition. XPS analysis of the protecting layer indicated that MoO$_3$composition was dominantly formed at the surface. MoO$_3$composition in the protecting layer appears to be more favorable in reducing the friction.

During the cold forming, due to high working pressure acting on the die surface, failure mechanics must be considered before die design. One of the main reasons of die failure in industrial application of metal forming technologies is wear. Die wear affects the tolerances of formed parts, metal flow and costs of process etc. The only way to control these failures is to develop methods which allow prediction of die wear and which are suited to be used in the design state in order to optimize the process. In this paper, the wear experiments to obtain the wear coefficients and the upsetting processes was accomplished to observe the wear phenomenon during the cold forming process. The analysis of upsetting processes was accomplished by the rigid-plastic finite element method. The result from the deformation analysis was used to analyse the die wear during the processes and the predicted die wear profiles were compared with the measured die wear profiles.

The effects of weae particles on the friiction and wear behavior of metals in dry sliding conditions are presented. The tribological test were performed using pure metal specimens which were selected based on their degrees of compatibility and hardness ratio. Friction and wear experiments were conducted using both pin-on-disk and reciprocating pin-on-plate type tribotesters to investigate the effect of motion history. Experimental results show that in the case of dry sliding the frictional behavior observed during pin-on-disk test differed form that of pin-on-reciprocator test for the given set of material pairs. The friction coefficient and wear rate were found to be higher for the pin-on-disk tests. It is suspected that the sliding motion of the pin affects the wear particle dynamics, which in turn influences the frictional behavior. The effect of material pair properties seemed to be relatively smaller than that of wear particles. The results of this paper is expected to aid in the design of mechanical systems for best tribological performance.
