The Coefficient Of Friction

The main task of the research is to improve technical and economic indicators of weight measuring system and to increase the efficiency of its research on the basis of cost-optimal planning of experiments. A system with a measuring tray has been developed, and it is different from existing systems with a possibility to control inclination angle of a tray, moisture content and temperature of a bulk substance, what provides better accuracy of mass measurement. The researches of weight measuring system were performed using the following methods of cost-optimal experiment planning: taboo search, particle swarm method, exhaustive search, Gray code based method. It gave possibility to reduce cost of implementing the experiment. To perform the research of weight measuring system, a plan of a full-factor experiment was selected, which was optimized for the cost of its implementation by using a method based on the Gray code. In the result of research, mathematical models in coded and natural values of factors were obtained. They characterize the dependence of the measurement acceptable error on such indicators as the angle of the measuring tray, the humidity of the bulk material, the coefficient of friction of the bulk material in motion. Using a mathematical model, rational values of the design parameters of the weight measuring system were obtained, which provide high accuracy (measurement acceptable error does not exceed 0.20%): the angle of the weight measuring tray α = 41.9°; humidity of loose material W = 14%; the coefficient of friction of the bulk material in motion fd  = 0.70. The developed weight measuring system can be widely used for dosing of bulk materials in various technological productions.

The assessment of the anti-skid properties of airfield pavements is one of the elements in the process of determining their current technical condition, which is important in terms of the safety of air operations. The condition of the pavement should be qualified on the basis of the specified and required values (criteria), in this case, the coefficient of friction and the depth of the texture. Unfortunately, in practice, the assessment of the texture of new airfield pavements raises some doubts with regard to the existing requirements. The work presents an analysis of the results of texture tests for new airfield pavements in relation to current requirements. In addition, the authors proposed a new criterion of average texture depth for new airfield pavements, based on actual field measurement results. Field studies used an innovative method of assessing anti-skid properties with a measuring system that allows simultaneous measurement of the coefficient of friction, μ, and the new continuous coefficient of average profile depth and texture CMPTD, from which MPD (Mean Profile Depth) and ETD (Estimated Texture Depth) can be determined. The results of the tests cast doubt on the possibility of obtaining the average texture depth (currently 1.00 mm) required for new airfield pavements.

Abstract The coefficient of friction (COF) is a key factor to estimate the performance of ball screws. Pieces of research focus on the experimental study of the COF, leading to the COF chosen empirically in many studies. To acquire the COF of the HJG-4010, a measuring system is conducted to detect the friction torque under different preloads and rotational speeds and the effects of the applied axial load and rotational speed on the COF are analyzed. By the curve fitting method, the Stribeck curve of the ball screw is obtained. The experimental results show that the lubricating state can be divided into two categories: the mixed lubrication state, and the hydrodynamic lubrication state. This study is beneficial to choose a suitable working condition for a different performance of the ball screw.

The Coefficient Of Friction

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.

Tribological properties of engineering components are a key issue due to their effect on the operational performance factors such as wear, surface characteristics, service life and in situ behavior. Thus, for better component quality, process parameters have major importance, especially for metal matrix composites (MMCs), which are a special class of materials used in a wide range of engineering applications including but not limited to structural, automotive and aeronautics. This paper deals with the tribological behavior of Cu-B-CrC composites (Cu-main matrix, B-CrC-reinforcement by 0, 2.5, 5 and 7.5 wt.%). The tribological characteristics investigated in this study are the coefficient of friction, wear rate and weight loss. For this purpose, four levels of sliding distance (1000, 1500, 2000 and 2500 m) and four levels of applied load (10, 15, 20 and 25 N) were used. In addition, two levels of sliding velocity (1 and 1.5 m/s), two levels of sintering time (1 and 2 h) and two sintering temperatures (1000 and 1050 °C) were used. Taguchi’s L16 orthogonal array was used to statistically analyze the aforementioned input parameters and to determine their best levels which give the desired values for the analyzed tribological characteristics. The results were analyzed by statistical analysis, optimization and 3D surface plots. Accordingly, it was determined that the most effective factor for wear rate, weight loss and friction coefficients is the contribution rate. According to signal-to-noise ratios, optimum solutions can be sorted as: the highest levels of parameters except for applied load and reinforcement ratio (2500 m, 10 N, 1.5 m/s, 2 h, 1050 °C and 0 wt.%) for wear rate, certain levels of all parameters (1000 m, 10 N, 1.5 m/s, 2 h, 1050 °C and 2.5 wt.%) for weight loss and 1000 m, 15 N, 1 m/s, 1 h, 1000 °C and 0 wt.% for the coefficient of friction. The comprehensive analysis of findings has practical significance and provides valuable information for a composite material from the production phase to the actual working conditions.

In this study, we present the results of Young’s modulus and coefficient of friction (COF) of Ti–Ta surface alloys formed by electron-beam surface alloying by a scanning electron beam. Ta films were deposited on the top of Ti substrates, and the specimens were then electron-beam surface alloyed, where the beam power was varied from 750 to 1750 W. The structure of the samples was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Young’s modulus was studied by a nanoindentation test. The coefficient of friction was studied by a micromechanical wear experiment. It was found that at 750 W, the Ta film remained undissolved on the top of the Ti, and no alloyed zone was observed. By an increase in the beam power to 1250 and 1750 W, a distinguished alloyed zone is formed, where it is much thicker in the case of 1750 W. The structure of the obtained surface alloys is in the form of double-phase α’and β. In both surface alloys formed by a beam power of 1250 and 1750 W, respectively, Young’s modulus decreases about two times due to different reasons: in the case of alloying by 1250 W, the observed drop is attributed to the larger amount of the β phase, while at 1750 W is it due to the weaker binding forces between the atoms. The results obtained for the COF show that the formation of the Ti–Ta surface alloy on the top of Ti substrate leads to a decrease in the coefficient of friction, where the effect is more pronounced in the case of the formation of Ti–Ta surface alloys by a beam power of 1250 W.

In this study, the authors numerically analyzed the bouncing vibrations of a two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) model of a tripad contact slider with air bearing pads over a harmonic wavy disk surface. The general features of bouncing vibrations were elucidated in regard to the modal characteristics of a 2-DOF vibration system and design parameters such as contact stiffness, contact damping, air hearing stiffness, the rear to front air bearing stiffness ratio, static contact force and the coefficient of friction. The design of a contact slider was discussed in terms of tracking ability and wear durability. In addition, two sample designs of a perfect contact slider with sufficient wear durability were also presented.

Film Lubrication

Although rotary shaft garter spring seals are widely used throughout industry, very little is known about the sealing mechanism of the lip-shaft interface. It is now generally accepted that some sort of fluid film separates the lip and the shaft. Previous workers have also postulated a relationship between the coefficient of friction and a non-dimensional hydrodynamic parameter, as in standard lubrication theory. This present paper clarifies this relationship, and shows that seals can also operate over the mixed friction, as well as the full film lubrication region. The results were obtained by accurate knowledge of the operating temperature under the sealing lip. Two types of surface thermocouple were developed to do this and these are described in full.

Recently, ionic liquids (ILs) have received an increasing attention as lubricants owing to their intriguing properties such as tunable viscosity, high thermal stability, low emissions, nonflammability, and corrosion resistance. In this work, we investigate how the incorporation of octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) functionalized silica nanoparticles (NPs) in 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium (trifluoromethysulfony)imide influences the tribological properties and rheological properties of IL under boundary lubrication and elastohydrodynamic conditions, respectively. It was found that the coefficient of friction was depended on the concentration of NPs in IL with a concave upward functional trend with a minimum at 0.05 wt.% for bare silica NPs and at 0.10 wt.% for OTS-functionalized silica NPs. For steel–steel sliding contact, the presence of functionalized NPs in IL at the optimum concentration decreased the coefficient of friction by 37% compared to IL and 17% compared to IL with bare silica NPs. While IL with bare NPs demonstrated a shear thinning behavior for all concentrations, IL with functionalized NPs showed a Newtonian behavior at low concentrations and shear thinning behavior at high concentrations. Overall, this study provides new insights into the antifriction and antiwear additives for lubrication systems involving ILs.
