Tests were carried out on a brake lining damper intended to dissipate energy between parts of a structure having relative motion during earthquake attack. The device operates by the sliding of a steel plate clamped against a brake lining. Hysteresis loops for the damper showed peaks for the breakaway friction force, when the value of the force was up to twice that obtained for continuous movement. Also values of the coefficient of friction derived from the test were lower than those quoted elsewhere. Further testing is required prior to the use of the method in structures.

A new design parameter, friction-instability, is defined in this paper. Friction-instability is a variation in the coefficient of friction which may occur at any time during the life of a brake lining. A friction-index is defined which measures this variation. A lining which has a high friction index may tend to cause an automobile to swerve either to the right or to the left. A unique experimental facility is described by means of which the friction-instability characteristics of brake linings can be measured. Test results using this facility are presented and interpreted. The friction-index is proposed as a new parameter which should be taken into consideration when brakes are designed and, developed. This index should be particularly useful as a quality control device to insure that machines which use mass-produced braking systems will perform in a safe and effective manner.

Frictional Vibrations

Abstract Frictional vibrations, such as stick-slip motion and automobile-brake squeal, which occur when two solid bodies are rubbed together, are analyzed mathematically and observed experimentally. The conditions studied are slow uniform motion and relatively rapid simple harmonic motion of brake lining over a cast-iron base. The equations of motion show and the observations confirm that frictional vibrations are caused primarily by an inverse variation of coefficient of friction with sliding velocity, but their form and occurrence are greatly dependent upon the dynamical constants of the mechanical system. With a constant coefficient of friction, the vibration initiated whenever sliding begins is rapidly damped out, not by the friction but by the “natural” damping of all mechanical systems. The coefficient of friction of most brake linings and other organic materials was essentially invariant with velocity, except that the static coefficient was usually greater than the sliding coefficient. Most such materials usually showed a small decrease in coefficient with increasing temperature. The persistent vibrations resulting from the excess static friction were reduced or eliminated by treating the rubbing surfaces with polar organic compounds which produced a rising friction characteristic.

Automotive brakes are the important machine element which provides an artificial frictional resistance to control the speed of an automobile. In the present work, theoretical models for the coefficient of friction between brake drum and friction liner are generated and simulated using MATLAB Simulink. A test set up designed and manufactured according to the brake lining quality test procedure (SAE J661) is used to investigate tribological properties of a non-asbestos friction lining material having 11 different constituents, which is manufactured from one of the brake liner manufacturer. An experiment is designed using response surface methodology (RSM) with vehicle speed, braking force, and sliding distance as the input parameters, whereas coefficient of friction and wear as an output. It is found that vehicle speed is the most significant parameter among the three. Fade and recovery behavior of the friction lining material is also studied and it is found that the developed friction lining material satisfies the criteria specified in SAE J661. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive spectoscopy (EDS) have revealed the significant surface phenomenon.

Abstract A machine for measuring the coefficient of friction between a flat sheet of polymeric material and a ground steel plate is described in detail. An inverted lathe cross slide forms the basis of the drive mechanism. Frictional force is balanced against the tension developed in a spring (proof ring), the extension of which measured with a commercial displacement pickup, gives a direct reading of coefficient of friction. A few results are given for a PVC sample plasticized with 40% dioctyl phthalate. A circuit for automatic operation and recording is also described.

The Coefficient Of Friction

The friction on ice of some small inflated rubber tires was measured on a turntable in a cold room. When rolling-friction force was plotted against load, the relation was either linear or slightly curved away from the load axis; such curvature implies that Thirion's Law does not hold for rolling friction. On the other hand when sliding-friction force was plotted against load the curvature was toward the load axis as would be expected if Thirion's Law applied. The coefficient of friction can go as low as 0.01 or even lower for a hard-pumped tire when the temperature is near 0 °C, but at −1 °C. rolling friction on dry ice is quite appreciable. The results refer only to measurements at very slow speed.

The Coefficient Of Friction

Abstract The effects of vulcanizate and slider surface free energy—as well as the adhesion force (P) between them—on friction the force (F) and the coefficient of friction (μ) has been investigated. SBR and NBR vulcanizates were prepared using three molds differing in surface free energy. The mold with a high surface free energy gave a vulcanizate surface possessing polar groups. The mold with low surface energy gave a vulcanizate surface with many nonpolar groups. The coefficient of friction increased with the surface free energy of SBR and NBR vulcanizates. With SBR vulcanizate (surface free energy, 31.3 mJ·m−2) and teflon slider (surface free energy, 28.1 mJ·m−2) combination having the least surface free energy, the coefficient of friction was constant at greater than a 0.2N load. With vulcanizates and an aluminum slider with high surface free energy, friction force could be detected even at zero load because of the adhesion force at the interface. Friction force increased linearly with adhesion force between vulcanizates and sliders when the physical properties of the vulcanizates and net work chain density were constant. The present results clearly demonstrate the contribution of adhesion force to the friction of vulcanizates.

Static Coefficient

The common belief regarding friction, which is based on the researches of Coulomb and Morin, is that between surfaces in motion the friction is independent of the velocity, but that the force required to start the sliding is (in some cases at least) greater than the force required to over­come friction during motion; in other words, the static coefficient is usually considered to be greater than the kinetic. It occurred to the authors that there might possibly be continuity between the two kinds of friction, instead of an abrupt change at the instant in which motion begins. We should thus expect that when the relative motion of the sur­faces is very slow there will be a gradual increase of friction as the velocity diminishes. Whether any such increase takes place at very low speeds is left an open question by the experiments of Coulomb and Morin, whose methods did not enable definite measurements of the friction to be made when the velocity was exceedingly small. The authors have succeeded in measuring the friction between surfaces moving with as low a velocity as one five-thousandth of a foot per second, and have found that in cer­tain cases there is decided increase in the coefficient of friction as the velocity diminishes.

Tread Rubber

In recent years, porous rubber has been used as a tread matrix for studless tires. It is said that the pores in the tread rubber remove water between the tire and the wet road surface; however, the water removal is not sufficiently well understood. In this study, a rotating rubber specimen was rubbed against a mating prism to observe the contact surface. The friction force was also measured simultaneously with observation of contact surface. The water entering the pores was distinguished by the continuity method. As the result of these experiments, the coefficient of friction for rubber having pores on the surface was found to be larger than that of rubber without pores. Moreover, the difference in the coefficient of friction for rubber specimens with and without pores tended to be larger at lower sliding speeds. No water entered pores 3mm or less in diameter at any sliding speed in this experiment. An experiment to make the rubber specimen collide with the mating prism was conducted since actual tires seem to be deformed by the vehicle weight, such that the tire surface might contact the road collisionally. In the resulting collision experiment, the water did enter pores 3mm in diameter.

The Ni-P-nanodiamond electroless composite plating adopting nanodiamond made dispersed acid liquid and the technology for Nanodiamond Electroless composite plating on steel plate was studied. The effect of plating factors on the properties of the coating was studied with orthogonal tests. The optimum formula of nanodiamond electroless composite plating was as follow: nanodiamond 3.0g/L, temperature 85°C，pH 4.5.Microstructure, corrosion resistance and wear resistance of coating were studied. The result show that The nanodiamond content of the composite coating can get weight 15.44%, and the cystiform microstructure is fine and the cohension between coating and base is good. The coefficient of friction of coating is about 0.8 time compared with that of pure Ni-P coating and its corrosion resistance was improved greatly due to the fine nanodiamond particle occupying in the little pit.

The Coefficient Of Friction

In this paper presents friction coefficient determination method between scraped object's material and fence material, determined directly on the conveyor belt, which then is introduced in the FEM program (LSDyna) for simulation of the scraping process in the automated sorting plant. In this case, the necessity of using an additional laboratory stand to determine the coefficient of friction is omitted. Due to the existing balance of friction forces, the model of the phenomenon can be treated as static, therefore the measurement is very simple and does not depend on time.
