An experimental study, including three experimental devices, is presented in order to investigate dry friction phenomena in a wide range of sliding speeds for the steel on steel contact. A ballistic setup, with an air gun launch, allows to estimate the friction coefficient between 20 m/s and 80 m/s. Tests are completed by an adaptation of the sensor on a hydraulic tensile machine (0.01 m/s to 3 m/s) and a pin-on-disk tribometer mounted on a CNC lathe (1 to 30 m/s). The interactions at the asperity scale are characterized by a white light interferometer surface analysis.

Recent advances in the commercial exploitation of electrospark coatings have focused on improving surface roughness by depositing Ti, Mo, V, or W over an interlayer of Cu, Sn, Pb, or Cd on the top of a tool steel material. This paper presents results of a systematic pin-on-disk experimental study of different type bilayer coatings (Cu–Sn/bronze, bottom layer; Ti and Mo, top layer) deposited on a Type 45 steel. The results are discussed in terms of friction coefficients obtained under different dry-friction conditions (speeds ranging from 0.3m∕sto0.8m∕s, and pressures ranging from 10Nto40N). An additional focus is on scuffling resistance of faces in friction, microhardness and surface roughness of coated items, and the competitive advantage of using advanced surface coatings.

Starved lubrication is an important strategy for minimizing the amount of lubricant needed, and also inevitably occurs during idling and fail-safe lubrication. In this regime, however, the flow of the lubricant and the related friction coefficients are yet to be fully understood. This research aims to make fundamental contributions to the understanding of contact mechanics of partially lubricated contacts. Recent experiments with a pin-on-disk tribometer examined the microscopic behavior of partially filled gaps. Using a new experimental setup on a macroscale, new insights into partially filled gaps with rough surfaces were gained. This work presents the systematic analyses of the lubricant flow, friction coefficients, and other variables over a wide range of friction parameters. Distinct friction behaviors were observed, and similar effects occur on both the micro and macroscale. The experimental results show that a typical Stribeck characteristic is visible regarding not only the relative velocity, but also regarding the lubricant filling level in the gap. The fluid exhibits a variety of flow patterns for various velocities and viscosities. The patterns relate to different friction regimes, such as dry friction and mixed lubrication. It is concluded that the filling level is a valid parameter for regulating the transition from dry friction to hydrodynamic lubrication. These findings are quantified regarding the filling level and it is shown that for the identification of the friction regimes the filling level is an independent parameter in addition to the established parameters like speed, viscosity and pressure.

An experimental method using a specifically set-up is presented in order to investigate dry friction phenomena, which occurs in the cutting process at the tool chip contact, in a wide range of sliding speed. A ballistic set-up using an air gun launch is used to measure the friction coefficient for the steel/carbide contact between 15 m/s and 80 m/s. A series of tests are conducted according to the sliding velocity and the normal pressure. These measurements are also introduced in a finite element simulation. The focus of this work is to determine the relevance of the friction modeling in the finite element method of the high speed machining. Modeling results are compared with cutting forces measured on a similar experimental device, which can reproduce perfect orthogonal cutting conditions. Measurement of temperature fields during the cutting process complete the parameter required for modeling. The results show that in high cutting speed, the friction modeling usually used in the FE codes is limited and that novel formulations are needed.

The analyzed topic refers to the wear resistance and friction coefficient changes resulting from heat treatment (HT) of a hot-dip zinc coating deposited on steel. The aim of research was to evaluate the coating behavior during dry friction after HT as a result of microstructure changes and increase the coating hardness. The HT parameters should be determined by taking into consideration, on the one hand, coating wear resistance and, on the other hand, its anticorrosion properties. A hot-dip zinc coating was deposited in industrial conditions (according EN ISO 10684) on disc-shaped samples and the chosen bolts. The achieved results were assessed on the basis of tribological tests (T11 pin-on-disc tester, Schatz®Analyse device, Sindelfingen, Germany), microscopic observations (with the use of optical and scanning microscopy), EDS (point and linear) analysis, and microhardness measurements. It is proved that properly applied HT of a hot-dip zinc coating results in changes in the coating’s microstructure, hardness, friction coefficient, and wear resistance.

The tribological properties of polyimide (PI) composites reinforced with graphite or MoS2 sliding in liquid alkali and water as well as dry friction were investigated using a ring-on-ring tester. The results show that the friction coefficient (μ) and wear rate (W) for both graphite/PI and MoS2/PI composites in different liquid mediums are μdry>μwater >μalkali and Wwater>Wdry >Walkali. Results also indicate that the friction coefficient and wear rate of the PI composites filled with different solid lubricants are μMoS2 >μgraphite and W MoS2 >Wgraphite in different liquid mediums. In addition, the hydrophobic inorganic fillers are fit for the reinforcement of polymer-based composites sliding in liquid mediums. It is also concluded from the authors’ work that the wear rate and friction coefficient of polymer-based (such as PI, PTFE) composites in the alkali lubricated conditions is lowest among all the friction conditions. This may be attributed to the ionic hydration in the alkaline solution.

Wear coefficient and friction coefficient are two of the key parameters in the performance of any tribo-system. The main purpose of the present research is to use continuum damage mechanics to predict wear coefficient. Thus, a contact model is utilized that can be used to obtain the friction coefficient between the contacting surfaces. By applying this model to the continuum damage mechanics model, the wear coefficient between dry surfaces is predicted. One of the advantages of using this model is that the wear coefficient can be numerically predicted unlike other methods which highly rely on experimental data. In order to verify the results predicted by this model, tests were performed using pin-on-disk test rig for several ST37 samples. The results indicated that the wear coefficient increases with increasing the friction coefficient.

The YBa2Cu3Ox/Ag and Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox/Ag self-lubricating composites were prepared using powder metallurgic method. The crystal structure and morphology of the as-synthesized samples were characterized by XRD and SEM. The YBa2Cu3Ox/Ag and Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox/Ag self-lubricating composites were found to compose of superconductor phase and Ag phase. The tribological properties from ultra-low temperature to room temperature of the composites were studied by pin-on-disk friction test. It was found that the friction coefficients of pure YBa2Cu3Ox(YBCO) and Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox(BSCCO) were both dropped abruptly when the temperature cooled below the superconducting transition temperature. At room temperature, the friction coefficient of pure YBa2Cu3Oxis 0.68~0.95, when mixing 15wt% Ag, the friction coefficient of the sample decreased to the lowest value 0.11. The friction coefficient of pure Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox is 0.15~0.17, When Ag content reach 10wt%, the coefficient was lowest (average value is 0.13). The addition of appropriate amount of Ag obviously improve the tribological property of YBCO, while only slightly meliorate that of BSCO. On the other hand, the YBCO/Ag composites exhibit better tribological properties than BSCCO/Ag composites at higher load under the same experimental condition.
