Abstract Mechanical tests are performed to evaluate the durability of gears under load. The chapter first discusses the processes involved in the computations of stress for test parameters of gear. Next, the chapter reviews the four areas of specimen characterization of a test program, namely dimensional, surface finish texture, metallurgical, and residual stress. The following section presents the tests that simulate gear action, namely the rolling contact fatigue test, the single-tooth fatigue test, the single-tooth single-overload test, and the single-tooth impact test. Finally, the chapter describes the test procedures for surface durability (pitting), root strength (bending), and scoring (or scuffing) testing.

The objective of this paper is to ascertain the wheel–rail low adhesion mechanism using a high-speed wheel–rail rolling contact test rig under different interfacial contaminations. Based on the experimental results, a numerical method was proposed to investigate the wheel–rail wear and rolling contact fatigue due to low adhesion issues. The experimental results indicated that the wheel–rail low adhesion phenomena can happen under interfacial liquid contaminations, especially at high-speed running condition. Preliminary numerical investigations showed that the low adhesion condition can easily lead to sliding hence serious wear, especially at the speed between 160 km/h and 200 km/h. The temperature rise within the contact patch can be significantly more severe once wheel and rail are in full slip, causing rolling contact fatigue due to material softening.

Abstract Two types of WC-12wt%Co powders, each manufactured by a different process, were thermally sprayed on a medium carbon steel by HVOF, and repeated load tests (rolling contact fatigue test and high cycles fatigue test) were carried out. The surface damages for the two types of coatings were investigated. It has been clear that the coating damages depend on the types of powders. It has been found that in rolling contact fatigue, there are the coatings, in which damage is characterized by delamination, and by a mixture of delamination and cracks. And it has also been found that in high cycles fatigue, there are the coatings, in which damage is characterized by net-like fatigue cracks, and by linear fatigue cracks.
