The article studies the surface properties of PLA material prepared by additive technology, i.e. 3D printing. Samples with a square test area were printed by FFF technology. After 3D printing, the surface texture of the samples was evaluated in terms of microgeometry.Tribological tests were performed on the samples. The surface of the samples was cyclically stressed with the same load, always on the same path. Cyclic loading of the surface was performed on a UMT Bruker tribometer. The tribological properties between the sample surface and the test specimen in the shape of a ball were studied during the reciprocating motion. In particular, the coefficient of friction was measured and evaluated. The ball material was PTFE and Polypropylene.The wear parameters of samples and balls were documented and evaluated. The results of the tests are the load dependencies on the wear of the PLA material and the test specimens.

The experimental investigation of reciprocating motion between the aluminum doped crumb rubber /epoxy composite and the steel ball has been carried out under Reciprocating Friction Tester, TR-282 to study the wear and coefficient of frictions using different normal loads (0.4Kg, 0.7Kgand1Kg), differentfrequencies (10Hz, 25Hz and 40Hz).The wear is a function of normal load, reciprocating frequency, reciprocating duration and the composition of the material. The percentage of aluminum presents in the composite changesbut the other components remain the same.The four types of composites are fabricated by compression molding process having 0%, 10%, 20% and 30% Al. The effect of different parameters such as normal load, reciprocating frequency and percentage of aluminum has been studied. It is observed that the wear and coefficient of friction is influenced by the parameters. The tendency of wear goes on decreasing with the increase of normal load and it is minimum for a composite having 10%aluminum at a normal load of 0.7Kg and then goes on increasing at higher loads for all types of composite due to the adhesive nature of the composite. The coefficient of friction goes on decreasing with increasing normal loads due to the formation of thin film as an effect of heat generation with normal load.

Experiments were conducted using an Optimol SRV5 tester in lubricated friction conditions. Steel balls from 100Cr6 material of 60 HRC hardness were placed in contact with 42CrMo4 steel discs of 47 HRC hardness and diversified surface textures. Tests were carried out at a 25–40% relative humidity. The ball diameter was 10 mm, the amplitude of oscillations was set to 0.1 mm, and the frequency was set to 80 Hz. Tests were performed at smaller (45 N) and higher (100 N) normal loads and at smaller (30 °C) and higher (90 °C) temperatures. During each test, the normal load and temperature were kept constant. We found that the disc surface texture had significant effects on the friction and wear under lubricated conditions. When a lower normal load was applied, the coefficient of friction and wear volumes were smaller for bigger disc surface heights. However, for a larger normal load a higher roughness corresponded to a larger coefficient of friction.

Tekstur permukaan jalan umumnya terdiri dari aspal dan beton. Kekasaran tekstur permukaan jalan dapat disebabkan oleh struktur perkerasan dan beban kendaraan. Kekasaran tekstur permukaan jalan, bebandan kecepatan kendaraan akan mempengaruhi koefisien gesek. Untuk mengetahui nilai koefisien gesek dilakukan penelitian dengan melakukan variasi beban mobil (Daihatsu Xenia, Toyota Avanza, Toyota Innova dan Toyota Yaris) terhadap kontak permukaan jalan (aspal dan beton) dan kecepatan kendaraan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa massa, lebar kontak tapak ban terhadap permukaan jalan dan kecepatan sangat mempengaruhi nilai koefisien gesek kinetis. Koefisien gesek kinetis yang terbesar untuk ketiga kontak permukaan jalan (aspal lama IRI 10,1, Aspal baru IRI 6,4 dan beton IRI 6,7) dengan menggunakan mobil Daihatsu Xenia terjadi pada kondisi jalan beton yaitu 0,495 pada kecepatan 35 Km/Jam. Koefisien kinetis jalan beton > 52 % dibandingkan jalan aspal pada parameter IRI yang sama (6-8).Koefisien gesek kinetis > 0,33 diperoleh di jalan beton pada kecepatan 30 – 40 Km/Jam   The texture of road surface generally consists of asphalt and concrete. The roughness of the road surface texture could be caused by the structure of the pavement and the load of the vehicles. Roughness of road surface texture, load and speed of vehicles would affect to the coefficient of friction. This research was carried out to find out the value of the coefficient of friction by using various load of cars (Daihatsu Xenia, Toyota Avanza, Toyota Innova and Toyota Yaris) on road surface contact (asphalt and concrete) and vehicle speed. The result showed the mass, the width of the tire tread contact to the road surface, and speed very influenced the coefficient value of kinetic friction. The biggest kinetic friction coefficient for all three road surface contacts (IRI 10.1 old asphalt, IRI 6.4 and IRI 6.7) using the Daihatsu Xenia was on the concrete road condition i.e. 0.495 on a speed of 35 km/hour. The concrete road kinetic coefficient was >52% compared to the asphalt road in the same IRI parameter (6-8). The kinetic friction coefficient >0.33 was obtained on the concrete road on a speed of 30 - 40 km/hour.

1. Three men and seven women, 25-40 yr of age, were asked to use the thumb and index fingers to grasp, lift, and hold the armature of a linear motor generating a 2.0-N opposing force (simulating an object weighing approximately 200 g) for 2 s. The surface in contact with the fingers was composed of smooth or polyamide plastic etched with 1.0-mm high Braille beads separated at 2.0- or 3.0-mm intervals measured from apex to apex. The surfaces were left either untreated or coated with talc, water, or sucrose films designed to change the coefficient of friction with the skin. Talc reduced the coefficient of friction, whereas water and sucrose both increased the friction against the skin. In all, 12 surface conditions were used to evaluate the effects of texture and friction on the grip force during lifting and holding. 2. For all subjects the inverse coefficient of friction was associated with proportionately scaled increases in grip force, regardless of surface texture. The peak lifting force as well as the static force used to hold the object stationary were significantly correlated with the inverse of the coefficient of friction. When coatings were applied to dissimilar surface textures to produce similar coefficients of friction, the grip force profiles were nearly identical. When strong adhesives increased the friction of the smooth surface compared with textured surfaces, grip forces decreased as friction increased. That is, although the untreated smooth surface had less friction than either of the two textured surfaces, the addition of sucrose increased the smooth surface friction to a higher level than either of the similarly treated textured surfaces. As a result, the effect of surface friction could be dissociated from the effect of either surface texture or coating. Friction appears to be a more important factor in determining the grip force than either texture or surface films at least for the range of textures and coatings examined in this study.

Friction plays an important role in metal forming processes. In the present investigation, various kinds of surface texture with varying roughness were produced on steel plates. Pins made of Al-8Mg alloy were then slid against the prepared steel plates using inclined pin-on-plate sliding tester to understand the role of surface texture of the harder surface and load on coefficient of friction and transfer layer formation under both dry and lubricated conditions. It was observed that both the coefficient of friction and transfer layer formation are highly dependent on the surface texture of harder counterface. Numerical analysis of simulated compression test, assigning different magnitude of coefficient of friction at different regions between the die and work piece, was carried out to understand the effect of friction on deformation and stress distribution. Results of simulation revealed that, owing to the difference in coefficient of friction, there is a difference in metal flow pattern. Both experimental and numerical results confirmed that the surface texture of the die surface and thus coefficient of friction directly affects the strain rate and flow pattern of the work-piece.

In the present investigation, efforts were made to study the different frictional responses of materials with varying crystal structure and hardness during sliding against a relatively harder material of different surface textures and roughness. In the experiments, pins were made of pure metals and alloys with significantly different hardness values. Pure metals were selected based on different class of crystal structures, such as face centered cubic (FCC), body centered cubic (BCC), body centered tetragonal (BCT) and hexagonal close packed (HCP) structures. The surface textures with varying roughness were generated on the counterpart plate which was made of H-11 die steel. The experiments were conducted under dry and lubricated conditions using an inclined pin-on-plate sliding tester for various normal loads at ambient environment. In the experiments, it was found that the coefficient of friction is controlled by the surface texture of the harder mating surfaces. Further, two kinds of frictional response, namely steady-state and stick-slip, were observed during sliding. More specifically, stead-state frictional response was observed for the FCC metals, alloys and materials with higher hardness. Stick-slip frictional response was observed for the metals which have limited number of slip systems such as BCT and HCP. In addition, the stick-slip frictional response was dependent on the normal load, lubrication, hardness and surface texture of the counterpart material. However, for a given kind of surface texture, the roughness of the surface affects neither the average coefficient of friction nor the amplitude of stick-slip oscillation significantly.

The nature of cathodic processes during the frictional interaction of aluminum alloy with ball corundum in the conditions of reciprocating motion has been studied. Under conditions of anodic polarization under conditions of friction, corrosion processes are activated and their speed during friction increases many times. The potential on the surface of the alloy under acid rain shifts sharply in the negative direction. Changes in the tribopotential and coefficient of friction are characterized by a gradual shift in values ​​at the initial stage of research. The oxide film is formed on the metal surface in neutral and acidic environments. The service life of the film is increased due to electrochemical protection during cathodic polarization at the electrode potential of pure alloy without oxide film. It is proved that polarization changes the life of the film in the initial stages and the loss of material and the coefficient of friction during the entire test period. It is established that the nature of surface fracture also changes as a result of application of the polarization potential during friction. The largest surface damage is observed during anodic polarization.

This study intends to analyse the coefficient of friction and wear properties of the acrylonitrile butadiene styrene polymer by determining the optimal parameters for 3D printing. The pin specimens were produced using the fused filament fabrication 3D printing. Response surface methodology is used for the multivariate analysis, and Box–Behnken Design is the chosen symmetrical design method. Changes to the dependent variables, coefficient of friction and wear rate, were analysed as a function of the nozzle temperature, layer height and printing pattern. The coefficient of friction and wear rate were measured using a pin-on-disc tribometer. A good agreement between the modelled and measured values of coefficient of friction and wear rate was observed. The study suggests that layer height affecting coefficient of friction and wear rate most significantly. It is determined that a layer height of 0.10 mm and a nozzle temperature of 234℃ using the triangle printing pattern is the optimal set of combination to minimise coefficient of friction and wear rate.

In the present investigation, various kinds of textures (undirectional, 8-ground, and random,) were attained on a set of steel plate surfaces. The roughness of the textures was varied using different grits of emery papers or polishing powders. Pins made of pure magnesium were then slid against the steel plates at various numbers of cycles (1, 2, 6, 10 and 20) using an inclined pin-on-plate sliding apparatus. In the experiments, it was observed that the coefficient of friction and the formation of a transfer layer depended on the die surface textures under both dry and lubricated conditions. The coefficient of friction increased with number of cycles under dry conditions for all of the textures studied. Under lubricated conditions, however, the coefficient of friction decreased for unidirectional and 8-ground surfaces and increased for random surfaces with the number of cycles. A stick-slip phenomenon was observed under both dry and lubricated conditions. Occurrence of the stick slip behavior depended on the surface texture, the load and the number of cycles. The variation in the coefficient of friction under both dry and lubrication conditions was attributed to changes in the texture of the surfaces during sliding.

The paper presents the results of coefficient of static and kinetic friction depending on the load. During the study, the sample in the form of a pin with expanded graphite, mounted in a holder, was forcibly pressed the Fn to the steel countersample. The device on which the tests were carried out research allows sliding friction in reciprocating motion. It has been found that there is a noticeable difference between the coefficient of static friction and kinetic for both fixed and different pressures. In the field of applied pressure, there were no significant their impact on the coefficient of friction; applied force was not sufficiently high which may have contributed to this state. The study had a distinctive character.
