A Novel Dynamic Friction Experiment Using a Modified Kolsky Bar Apparatus
نویسندگان
چکیده
-A novel dynamic friction experiment using the Kolsky bar concept was developed. The technique is complementary to the plate impact and other macroscopic friction experiments in the sense that sliding velocities and pressures not attainable otherwise can be investigated. The experimental results reported in this article show that the technique provides accurate and repeatable measurement of time-resolved friction. The apparatus is simpler and easier to operate than the plate impact facility. However, it cannot achieve the same level of contact pressure. Several material pairs have been investigated. In particular, the kinetic friction coefficient of Ti6AI-4V sliding against WC/Co (cerrmet) and 4340 steel sliding against WC/Co were measured and compared with the values reported by Prakash and Clifton in 1993. Atomic force microscopy is used to characterize the surface topography before and after the friction tests. KEY WORDS--Kolsky bar, dynamic friction, manufacturing, wear

A novel experimental procedure for the testing of ceramic coatings in quasi-static and dynamic torsion is presented. The tests were performed on a Kolsky bar apparatus modified for torsion loading. High-speed photography was used to take snapshots of the surface of the specimen gage during loading, and digitally correlated to determine the full displacement and strain fields. Microand nanoAl2O3...

In this paper, the results of experiments conducted to investigate the friction coefficient existing at a brass-steel interface are presented. The research discussed here is the second of a two-part study on the size effects in friction conditions that exist during microextrusion. In the regime of dimensions of the order of a few hundred microns, these size effects tend to play a significant ro...
