The purpose of this study is to determinate the influence of surface roughness on the tribological behavior of a lubricated steel against steel tribosystem. Tests were carried out at high pressure and slow sliding speed, in order to simulate at small scale, the contact conditions found in the seal of the threaded joints used in oil & gas casing and tubing strings. Tests were carried out with a simplified block-onring test, varying the surface roughness of rings between 1.3 to 3 m Ra values. A thread compound lubricant containing lead, copper, zinc and graphite was used. During each cycle of test, the normal load was varied linearly between 250 N and 7000 N. An exponential correlation between Ra and Rt roughness values with the wear damage was found and the wear damage of the blocks decreases about 40 percent with the increasing of initial Ra roughness parameter in the movil surface.

Force Relationship

A theory of rolling contact is presented which deviates from past theories in two respects: (a) the contacting surfaces are not assumed to be topographically smooth, and (b) Coulomb’s law of friction is replaced by a law describing the behavior of interfacial friction junctions. Numerical results for the slip as a function of the normal and tangential loads are shown to depend on a roughness parameter D, which, in turn, depends on surface topography, the gross geometry of the contacting bodies and on the normal load. It is found that when D is large (i.e., the surfaces are very rough, or the normal load is small), the slip-force relationship differs considerably from that predicted by the smooth-surface (or classical) theory. When D tends to zero, the two theories coincide. The dependence of D on topographical parameters is shown explicitly. Numerical examples indicate that for cylinders of small radius, surface-roughness effects may be important. Their importance decreases as the cylinder radius or the maximum contact pressure is increased, or the surface is made smoother.

Normal Contact Stiffness

Measurements with digital image correlation of normal and tangential contact stiffness for ground Ti-6Al-4V interfaces suggest a linear relationship between normal contact stiffness and normal load and a linear relationship between tangential contact stiffness and tangential load. The normal contact stiffness is observed approximately to be inversely proportional to an equivalent surface roughness parameter, defined for two surfaces in contact. The ratio of the tangential contact stiffness to the normal contact stiffness at the start of tangential loading is seen to be given approximately by the Mindlin ratio. A simple empirical model is proposed to estimate both the normal and tangential contact stiffness at different loads for a ground Ti-6Al-4V interface, on the basis of the equivalent surface roughness and the coefficient of friction.

Theoretical Considerations

The problem of a rolling ball subjected to combined normal load and tangential tractions has been studied for a variety of operating conditions. It is shown that for dry steady state loading the resultant slip may be explained in terms of a microslip theory based on the differential elastic straining of the ball and the track. Such results necessitate a careful experimental technique in which the surfaces must be free from contamination and loose wear debris. It is also shown that the preceding arguments are not significantly affected by dynamically varying loads or by speed variations in the range 0-150 in/min. The slip behaviour is found to be markedly affected by the presence of a lubricant. The behaviour with load and speed now indicates a definite hydrodynamic effect, although the theoretical film thickness is considerably less than the surface roughness. These results agree well with the results of other investigations for similar conditions. Using these experimental results and theoretical considerations a tentative power law formulation for the slip under such conditions is proposed.

ABSTRACT Alteration processes on asteroid and comet surfaces, such as thermal fracturing, (micrometeorite) impacts or volatile outgassing, are complex mechanisms that form diverse surface morphologies and roughness on various scales. These mechanisms and their interaction may differ on the surfaces of different bodies. Asteroid Ryugu and comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko, both, have been visited by landers that imaged the surfaces in high spatial resolution. We investigate the surface morphology and roughness of Ryugu and 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko based on high-resolution in situ images of 0.2 and 0.8 mm pixel resolution over an approximately 25 and 80 cm wide scene, respectively. To maintain comparability and reproducibility, we introduce a method to extract surface roughness descriptors (fractal dimension, Hurst exponent, joint roughness coefficient, root-mean-square slope, hemispherical crater density, small-scale roughness parameter, and Hapke mean slope angle) from in situ planetary images illuminated by LEDs. We validate our method and choose adequate parameters for an analysis of the roughness of the surfaces. We also derive the roughness descriptors from 3D shape models of Ryugu and orbiter camera images and show that the higher spatially resolved images result in a higher roughness. We find that 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko is up to 6 per cent rougher than Ryugu depending on the descriptor used and attribute this difference to the different intrinsic properties of the materials imaged and the erosive processes altering them. On 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko sublimation appears to be the main cause for roughness, while on Ryugu micrometeoroid bombardment as well as thermal fatigue and solar weathering may play a significant role in shaping the surface.

The contact belt of the gate assembly is the main part of high pressure fittings. The serviceability of the fittings assembly as whole depends on the air-tightness and quality of the mating surfaces. The technology of diamond burnishing allows to increase the interface of the nodes by red ucing the surface roughness of the metal-to-metal seal. The real experience for improving of the fittings contact belt due to the use of diamond burnishing of the nozzles seats and the conical surface of the rods.

The shaping process of surface texture is complicated and depends on many factors and phenomena accompanying them. This article presents the author’s test stand for the measurement of relative displacements in a tool–workpiece system during longitudinal turning. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of edge radius on the relative displacement between the tool and workpiece. The cutting process was carried out with inserts with different edge radii for X37CrMoV5-1 steel. As a result of the research, vibration charts of the tool–workpiece system were obtained. In the range of feed 0.03–0.18 mm/rev, the values of the standard deviation of relative displacements in the x-axis were obtained in the range of 0.36–0.78 μm for the insert with an edge radius of rn = 48.8 μm. As a result of the work, it was determined that for the feed value of 0.12 mm/rev for all inserts, the relative displacements are the smallest. As the final effect, the formula for forecasting the Ra roughness parameter was presented.

Skewness And Kurtosis

The surface roughness affects the bone response to dental implants. A primary aim of the roughness is to increase the bone-implant interface shear strength. Surface roughness is generally characterized by means of surface roughness parameters. It was demonstrated that the normally used parameters cannot discriminate between surfaces expected to give a high interface shear strength from surfaces expected to give a low interface shear strength. It was further demonstrated that the skewness parameter can do this discrimination. A problem with this parameter is that it is sensitive to isolated peaks and valleys. Another roughness parameter which on theoretical grounds can be supposed to give valuable information on the quality of a rough surface is kurtosis. This parameter is also sensitive to isolated peaks and valleys. An implant surface was assumed to have a fairly well-defined and homogenous “semiperiodic” surface roughness upon which isolated peaks were superimposed. In a computerized simulation, it was demonstrated that by using small sampling lengths during measurement, it should be possible to get accurate values of the skewness and kurtosis parameters.

Conditions are discussed for which the contact zone at the tip of a two-dimensional interface crack between anisotropic elastic materials is small. For such “small scale contact” conditions combined with small scale yielding conditions, a stress concentration vector uniquely characterizes the near tip field, and may be used as a crack growth parameter. Representative calculations for an interface crack on a representative Cu grain boundary show small contact conditions to prevail, except possibly under large shearing loads.

Wire electrical discharge machining is a machining method by which parts having various contours could be detached from plate workpieces. The method uses the electrical discharges developed between the workpiece and the wire tool electrode found in an axial motion, when in the work zone a dielectric fluid is recirculated. In order to highlight the influence exerted by some input process factors on the surface roughness parameter Ra in case of a workpiece made of an alloyed steel, a factorial experiment with six independent variables at two variation levels was designed and materialized. As input factors, one used the workpiece thickness, pulse on time, pulse off-time, wire axial tensile force, current intensity average amplitude defined by setting button position and travelling wire electrode speed. By mathematical processing of the experimental results, empirical models were established. Om the base of a power type empirical model, graphical representations aiming to highlight the influence of some input factors on the surface roughness parameter Ra were achieved. The power type empirical model facilitated establishing of order of factors able to exert influence on the surface roughness parameter Ra at wire electrical discharge machining.
