Abstract Several criteria for fretting wear behavior evaluation have been established since the proposal and establishment of the fretting loop concept. In this article, system deformation and system deformation ratio were defined. In addition, the fretting running conditions were distinguished from the evolution of system deformation with fretting cycles during fretting wear tests under different applied displacements and loads. In the gross slip regime, the system deformation was independent of the applied displacement and increased as the load increased, whereas in the partial slip regime, the system deformation was independent of the load and increased with the applied displacement. Furthermore, a linear relationship between the system deformation and the applied load in gross slip regime was found for the first time. Based on this linear relationship, the system deformation ratio can forecast the running regime with a given load and displacement. For the titanium alloy fretting pairs studied in this article, the fretting wear was found to run in the gross slip regime if the system deformation ratio was smaller than 0.9. Based on these observations, the system deformation ratio exhibited applicability in assisting the mechanical design of equipment suffering from fretting wear.

In this work, an in-situ XPS analysis test combined self-designed high precision fretting wear tester was carried out to study the fretting wear behavior and the resulting tribo-oxidation of thermal-oxidation film on Ti6Al4V titanium alloy under the varied working atmosphere. The fretting-induced tribo-oxidation under the air and vacuum ([Formula: see text] Pa) environment was analyzed and its response on the resulting fretting wear resistance and damage mechanism was discussed. Results show that the working environment plays a significant role in the formation of tribo-oxidation and then determining the fretting wear resistance. Thermal-oxidation film in the vacuum atmosphere shows a better fretting wear resistance than that in the air atmosphere for all fretting regimes, except for partial slip regime (PSR) where there is an equivalent fretting wear resistance. Compared with the substrate Ti6Al4V titanium alloy, the thermal-oxidation film in the vacuum atmosphere performs a good protection for titanium alloy, especially for slip regime (SR), but not applied for air atmosphere.

The effect of displacement amplitude on fretting wear behavior and damage mechanisms of alloy 690 in air and nitrogen atmospheres was investigated in detail. The results showed that in air, the friction coefficient gradually increased with the increase in displacement amplitude which conformed to the universal law. In nitrogen, however, it had the highest point at the displacement amplitude of 60 μm due to very strong adhesion. Whether in air or nitrogen, the wear volume gradually increased with the increase in displacement amplitude. The wear volume in air was larger than that in nitrogen except at 30 μm. At 30 μm, the wear volume in air was slightly smaller. With an increase in displacement amplitude, a transformation of fretting running status between partial slip, mixed stick-slip, and final gross slip occurred along with the change of Ft-D curves from linear, to elliptic, to, finally, parallelogrammical. Correspondingly, the fretting regime changed from a partial slip regime to a mixed regime to a gross slip regime. With the increase in displacement amplitude, the transition from partial slip to gross slip in nitrogen was delayed as compared with in air due to the strong adhesion actuated by low oxygen content in a reducing environment. Whether in air or nitrogen, the competitive relation between fretting-induced fatigue and fretting-induced wear was prominent. The cracking velocity was more rapid than the wear. Fretting-induced fatigue dominated at 30 μm in air but at 30–60 μm in nitrogen. Fretting-induced wear won the competition at 45–90 μm in air but at 75–90 μm in nitrogen.

Fretting wear between titanium alloy components in aero engine is prevailing in the blade dovetail, the blade crown, and the damping shoulders. In this study, the fretting wear behavior of Ti-6Al-4V alloy was investigated by changing the load and displacement under a high frequency (100 Hz). To simulate the actual working conditions in aero engines, both the ball and flat samples were Ti-6Al-4V alloy. It was found that as the load increased, or as the applied displacement decreased, the fretting regime changed from gross slip regime to partial slip regime. The coefficient of friction/traction at steady stage decreased as load increased. Wear scar morphologies varied with fretting running conditions. In gross slip regime, the central area was higher than the rest region of the wear scar. In the mixed slip regime, large material accumulation could be found at both ends of the reciprocating motion. In partial slip regime, a nearly original fretting sample surface was observed in the central area and wear occurred in the edge area. Furthermore, considering the wear of the paired samples, a method based on the fretting wear scar diameter was proposed to evaluate the fretting running conditions.

Tribological behavior of the Inconel X-750 alloy disk subjected to fretting against the GCr15 steel ball was investigated in an ambient laboratory air with relative humidity of 55–65%. A high-frequency oscillating Optimol SRV 4 tribometer was employed to execute dry fretting tests in the partial and gross slip regimes under constant 100 N normal load. Tests were carried out for 10, 30, and 90 minutes, and the friction forces vs. displacement amplitudes were monitored during the test duration. Posttest examinations were conducted utilizing advanced tools such as 3D optical surface profiler, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The main objective was to obtain wear scar evolutions, frictional properties, and degradation mechanisms under the different running conditions over time. It was found that fretting wear behaviors of friction pairs were strongly influenced by fretting regimes. Degradation evolutions were greatly influenced by fretting time during partial slip regimes, i.e., evolving from asperity deformation and slight damage to the fatigue crack and material transfer. However, the combination of adhesive, abrasive, delamination, and wear oxidation mechanisms was repeated during the entire gross slip fretting process.

In this study, fretting wear behavior of NC30Fe tubes against 1Cr13 stainless steel cylinder in distilled water and hydrazine solution was investigated at room temperature. Wear scar was analyzed systematically by NanoMap500DLS dual-mode profilometer, SEM, EDX. The results showed that the fretting logs were running in slip regime. The hydrazine solution may lead to corrosion. The friction coefficient in aqueous medium was lowered obviously, but it in distilled water was lower than that in hydrazine solution due to the effect of hydrazine solution. The wear was lightened in aqueous medium significantly, but it was more severe in hydrazine solution than that in distilled water for the reason of hydrazine solution. The abrasive wear, friction oxidation and delamination were the main wear mechanisms of NC30Fe in ambient. However, in aqueous medium the abrasive wear and delamination were the main wear mechanisms of NC30Fe.

The fretting wear behavior of Ti-6Al-4V is studied with the focus on cyclic plasticity effect under partial slip condition. The analysis is simulated using finite element based method with a new worn surface profile model represent a given number of cycles using a cylinder-on-flat geometry. The effect of surface modification on the stresses and plastic strain distribution is studied. As the profiles become deeper and wider, the contact pressure and shear stress increase at the stick zone. Due to this increment, the accumulation of plastic strain will become more significant. This may lead to material’s ductility exhaustion that could initiate the nucleation of crack. Plastic deformation is predicted to occur in the 6000th cycle model and onwards. Overall the relationship of fretting wear and plasticity has been defined qualitatively.

Fretting is now fully identified as a small amplitude oscillatory motion which induces a harmonic tangential force between two surfaces in contact. It is related to three main loadings, i.e. fretting-wear, fretting-fatigue and fretting corrosion. Fretting regimes were first mapped by Vingsbo. In a similar way, three fretting regimes will be considered: stick regime, slip regime and mixed regime. The mixed regime was made up of initial gross slip followed by partial slip condition after a few hundred cycles. Obviously the partial slip transition develops the highest stress levels which can induce fatigue crack nucleation depending on the fatigue properties of the two contacting first bodies. Therefore prediction of the frontier between partial slip and gross slip is required.
