Friction characteristics of phenolic resin-based friction composites containing threedifferent relative amounts of graphite and zirconium silicate were investigated by using a pad-on-disk type friction tester. Constant temperature test and constant interval test at three different initial temperatures(100. 200, 300$^{\circ}C$) were performed to examine the effects of friction heat on friction characteristics at elevated temperature. The friction composite(FMO.7) with higher content of ZrSiO$_4$showed unstable friction force at higher temperature and resulted in larger fluctuations of vibration during friction test. The abrasive action of ZrSiO$_4$in friction composite impeded stable transfer film and induced higher friction heat at friction interface. Friction oscillations according to the temperature were associated with the formation of transfer film(i'd body layer) on the friction composite and the counter part.

SiCp-reinforced metal matrix composites (MMCs) containing 8 wt % and 16 wt % of $SiC_p-reinforced$ with 30 and $45\;{\mu}m$ in sizes were prepared by a melt stirring-squeeze casting technique. Microstructural observation showed that particle distributions were reasonably well. Turning experiments were carried out on the composites using uncoated and triple-layer coated carbide tools at various cutting speeds under a constant feed rate and depth of cut. Coated tools indicated better performance than uncoated tools for all the materials while the poor surface finish was obtained for coated tools.

The wear behaviour of steam generator (SG) tubes (Inconel 600 and 690) against support materials (405 and 409 ferritic stainless steels) has been experimentally studied in room temperature water using reciprocating wear apparatus with tube-an-plate configuration. The results showed that the wear rate of Inconel 690 was lower than that of lnconel 600 with increasing normal loads and sliding amplitudes. Also, plastic deformation layers appear below the surface of both SG tubes, which have a specific thickness and are small compared with their grain size. This means that wear rate of SG tubes in water condition is closely related to the formation and fracture of plastic deformation layers.

Fretting of fuel rod cladding material, Zircaloy-4 tube, in PWR nuclear power plants must be reduced and avoided. Nowadays the introduction of surface treatments or coatings is expected to be an ideal solution to fretting damage since fretting is closely related to wear. corrosion and fatigue. Therefore. in this study the fretting wear experiment was performed using TiAlN coated Zircaloy-4 tube as the fuel rod cladding and uncoated Zircaloy-4 as on of grids, especially concentrating on the sliding component. Fretting wear resistance of TiAlN coated Zircaloy-4 tubes was improved compared with that of TiN coated tubes and uncoated tubes and fretting wear mechanisms were brittle fracture and plastic flow at lower slip amplitude but severe oxidation and spallation of oxidative layer at higher ship amplitude.

Effects of ion implantation on the adhesion strength of DLC film as a function of ion doses and implanted energies were investigated. Ti ions were implanted on the Si-wafer substrates followed by DLC coating using ion beam deposition method. Adhesion strength of DLC films were determined by scratch adhesion tester. Morphologies and compositional variations at the different ion energies and doses were observer by Laser Microscope and Auger Electron Spectroscopy, respectively. From results of scratch test, the adhesion strength of films was improved as increasing ion implanted energy, however there was no significant evidence with ion dose.

An experimental study was performed to discover the effect of environmental conditions on the rolling resistance behavior of pure silver and lead coated 52100 bearing steel. Pure silver and lead coating were produced by a thermal evaporation coating method. Experiments using a thrust ball bearing-typed rolling test-rig were performed under vacuum, dry air and controlled humidity conditions. Results showed that agglomeration of particles were prevented in vacuum environment and as it showed low and stable rolling resistance by shakedown phenomena. Also, humidity relates closely to the agglomeration of particles and increased the rolling resistance after the failure of coated layer.

In many practical lubricated contacts such as a rough concentrated contact on the sliding of nominally flat surfaces, the fluid may be of molecular (nanometer) scale owing to the asperity interactions on the surfaces. Under this condition, there is insufficient lubricant on the concentrated contact spot to maintain a realistic continuum. Rheological behavior for this kind of concentrated contact has been studied extensively to know whether the application of viscous fluid model is appropriate. The interaction of two rough surfaces is simplified as perfectly flat-rough surfaces contact under certain conditions by "composite topography" and for a nanometer scale fluid film, three kinds of rheological fluid behavior are analyzed in elastohydrodynamic asperity point contact.t contact.

항공기 및 자동차를 위시한 기계공업 전반의 급속한 발달과 더불어 각종 기계들이 전문, 특수화됨에 따라 이들의 작업조건 역시 고속, 고하중화 되어가며 모든 기계요소의 접촉조건을 이겨낼 수 있는 해졀책이 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 방안으로 현재 선진공업국에서는 재래식 금속재료의 표면에 목적하는 효과를 발휘할 수 있는 물질을 코팅(coating)하여 그 표면의 특성을 향상시키기 위해 노력하고 있다. 일반 기계요소에서 발생되는 파괴는 원천적으로 접촉표면 및 부표면(subsurface)에서 시작되며 이는 표면층(surface layer)이 마모, 부식, 피로 등의 표면 관련 제 현상에 대한 대응능력이 결핍되거나 부족하게 되는 곳과 관련지울수 있다. 일반 금속재료로써는 표면층을 최적의 Tribology 적 성질 (내마모성, 내부식성, 고강도 등)을 갖도록 하기에는 미흡하다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 수단으로 bulk material에 그것이 가지지 못하는 Tribology 적으로 우수한 성질을 그 표면층에 부여하는 기술로써 여러가지 방법이 개발되어 왔으나 그중 대표적인 것이 바로 표면 코팅기술이다.

The characteristics of fretting wear are reviewed. Fretting damage depends on slip amplitude and classified into three groups: (1) an annular damage according to Mindlin's analysis at microslip region, (2) strong adhesive deformation without loose wear particles at the intermediate region, and (3) formation of fine oxide particles at the gross slip region. The critical slip amplitude of fretting is the boundary between (2) and (3). The boundary slip amplitude depends on normal load. The wear rate increases and saturates with increasing slip amplitude. But it is constant by considering the critical amplitude. The role of oxide particles are discussed. Three different actions are noted: accelerating wear, preventing wear and insignificant effect. The oxide shows two opposing effect depends on normal load and slip amplitude. This is related to the removal rate from the interface (abrasive action) and compaction rate at the interface to form a protective layer. The effect of oxidation is significant to determine the wear and friction. The diffusion of oxygen is restricted at the small amplitude. As a result, crack formation at the boundary is a predominant damage, related to fretting fatigue damage.
