To investigate the influence of the groove shape of friction disks on the wear of a friction clutch friction pair, a wear calculation model that considers the actual sliding distance between the friction clutch friction pair is presented based on the Archard adhesive wear model. The wear of three different groove-shaped friction pairs was calculated and analyzed. The wear test was carried out on the SAE#2 testing rig to obtain the actual wear amount and verify the accuracy and validity of the mathematical model. The results show that, among the three types of grooves, the friction disks with waffle grooves were the most prone to wear, followed by three-way parallel grooves. The wear performance of the two-way parallel grooves was the best, and the wear from one-time engagement can better reflect the change in the dynamic engagement of the friction pair. With the increase in the engagement time, the increase of the wear amount decreases.

The problem of evaluating the life period of different mechanisms is of great importance nowadays. This could be explained by the fact that the wear process is very complex and very many factors take place simultaneously. During the history a variety of theories that offered different methods of wear calculation models were developed. However still there is no exact wear calculation model that could be applied to all cases of wear processes. The offered method is dealing with the calculation of rough surface peaks that make the contact between two surfaces. Taking into account the number of these peaks and applying fatigue wear model based on 3D surface micro-topography, assessing the materials physical and mechanical characteristic quantities and considering definite service conditions of sliding friction pair it is possible to make the wear calculation of friction pair under definite working conditions.

In the current study, a multilayered polyester composite based on betelnut fiber mats is fabricated. The adhesive wear and frictional performance of the composite was studied against a smooth stainless steel at different sliding distances (0–6.72 km) and applied loads (20–200 N) at 2.8 m/s sliding velocity. Variations in specific wear rate and friction coefficient were evaluated at two different orientations of fiber mat; namely parallel (P–O) and normal (N–O). Results obtained were presented against sliding distance. The worn surfaces of the composite were studied using an optical microscope. The effect of the composite sliding on the stainless steel counterface roughness was investigated. The results revealed that the wear performance of betelnut fiber reinforced polyester (BFRP) composite under wet contact condition was highly dependent on test parameters and fiber mat orientation. The specific wear rate performance for each orientation showed an inverse relationship to sliding distance. BFRP composite in N–O exhibited better wear performance compared with P–O. However, the friction coefficient in N–O was higher than that in P–O at lower range of applied load. The predominant wear mechanism was debonding of fiber with no pullout or ploughing. Moreover, at higher applied loads, micro- and macrocracking and fracture were observed in the resinous region.

The friction and wear properties of several common metal materials (45#, 25CrMn, and 40CrNiMo) friction pair under oil lubrication was investigated on M-200 Type wear tester, and studied the friction under the condition of differ sliding speed and pressure. The results show that: the 25CrMn/45# steel pair has better tribological and wear performance; the load is the main factor which influences the friction of the material at the low sliding speed; the main wear form is adhesive wear, but the wear mechanism is gradually became from adhesive wear to abrasive wear and flaking wear with the contact pressure and sliding speed increased.

In this research, nanocomposite carbon has been found to have excellent tribological properties as a lubricant additive. To reduce high friction and wear in friction pairs, the modified nanocomposite carbon has been prepared for chemical technology. The morphology and microstructure of the modified nanocomposite carbon were investigated via TEM, SEM, EDS, XPS, and Raman. In this study, varying concentrations (1, 3, and 5 wt. %) within the modified nanocomposite carbon were dispersed at 350 SN lubricant for base oil. The suspension stability of lubricating oils with the modified nanocomposite carbon was determined by ultraviolet-visible light (UV-VIS) spectrophotometry. The friction and wear characteristics of lubricants containing materials of the modified nanocomposite carbon were evaluated under reciprocating test conditions to simulate contact. The morphology and microstructure of the friction pair tribofilms produced during frictional contact were investigated via SEM, EDS, and a 3D surface profiler. The results showed that scratches, pits, grooves, and adhesive wear were significantly reduced on the surface of the friction pair which was used with 3% nanocomposite carbon lubricant. Additionally, the modified nanocomposite carbon showed excellent friction reducing and anti-wear performance, with great potential for the application of anti-wear.

A number of different mechanisms and devices may involve sliding-friction surfaces. The issues of service life and its prediction for the details of such surfaces have always been of particular importance. The article determines the most suitable wear calculation model that allows considering the set of parameters necessary for calculating slide-friction pair. The offered model is based on the application of the theories of several branches of sciences. Since the wear process is variable and many-sided, it is influenced by numerous different parameters, for example, surface geometry (roughness, waviness, form deviation, etc.), physical and mechanical conditions of the upper layer, material components, wear regime, wear temperature, etc.

The concept of load sharing between asperities and fluid film is applied in conjunction with lubricated sliding wear formulation proposed by Wu and Cheng (1991, “A Sliding Wear Model for Partial-EHL Contacts,” ASME J. Tribol., 113, pp. 134–141; 1993, “Sliding Wear Calculation in Spur Gears,” ASME J. Tribol., 115, pp. 493–500) to predict the steady state adhesive wear in gears. Thermal effects are included using a simplified thermoelastohydrodynamic analysis. The prediction of the model is verified by comparing simulation results with published experimental data pertinent to steady state wear rate. The main advantages of this method are the accuracy and the remarkable computational efficiency. The results of parametric simulation study are presented to investigate the effect of speed and surface roughness on a portion of load carried by asperities and wear rate.

The objective of this study was to investigate the wear characteristics of the U-shaped rings of power connection fittings, and to construct a wear failure prediction model of U-shaped rings in strong wind environments. First, the wear evolution and failure mechanism of U-shaped rings with different wear loads were studied by using a swinging wear tester. Then, based on the Archard wear model, the U-shaped ring wear was dynamically simulated in ABAQUS, via the Umeshmotion subroutine. The results indicated that the wear load has an important effect on the wear of the U-shaped ring. As the wear load increases, the surface hardness decreases, while plastic deformation layers increase. Furthermore, the wear mechanism transforms from adhesive wear, slight abrasive wear, and slight oxidation wear, to serious adhesive wear, abrasive wear, and oxidation wear with the increase of wear load. As plastic flow progresses, the dislocation density in ferrite increases, leading to dislocation plugs and cementite fractures. The simulation results of wear depth were in good agreement with the test value of, with an error of 1.56%.
