in manufacturing industry, it has been acknowledged that tool wear prediction has an important role in higher quality of products and acceptable efficiency. being an emerging area of research in recent years, drilling tool wear is an important factor which directly affects quality parameters of machined hole such as hole centring, roundness, burr formation and finished surface. in this paper, t...

The aim of this paper is to focus on the effect of cryogenic treatment on the microstructure, mechanical and wear properties of Al 6061 and Al 8011.  The first objective was to understand the degree to which hardness of these aluminium grades have been enhanced by giving  cryogenic on the specimens. The second objective is to check the wear resistance property of these two aluminium specimens i...

In the present study, CrN, TiN and (Ti, Cr)N coatings were deposited on D6 tool steel substrates. Physical and mechanical properties of coatings such as microstructure, thickness, phase composition, and hardness were evaluated. Phase compositions were studies by X-ray diffraction method. Mechanical properties were determined by nano-indentation technique. The friction and wear behaviour of the ...

The wear resistance of microfilled and conventional composite resins, was examined, using two sizes of abrasive particles for polishing. The mechanical properties of the composite resins were also studied and evaluated in relation to wear. Conventional composites showed much lower wear resistance than the microfilled resins. The amalgam and human enamel abraded with 10ƒÊm SiC particles, had str...

The optoelectronic properties of gallium nitride (GaN) have been well studied for decades, with results being translated to applications in solid state lighting and lasers, thermoelectricity, solar cells, power electronics, etc. However, the mechanical and tribological properties of GaN have been studied and understood far less than its optoelectronic properties. Our research aims to explore th...

the plain carbon steel “ck45” has relatively well mechanical and metallurgical properties and low cost. the purpose of this research was the property evaluation of this steel on abrasive wear and impact for using in plows and other tillage tools. tillage tool should resist in abrasive wear and impact simultaneously. several heat treatments were done on specimens of this steel. a standard test d...

In situ imaging nanoindentation was used to characterize the mechanical properties of pure paint films on eight types of plywood-based flooring with different wear resistance. Correlation between the mechanical properties of paint films and the wear resistance of wood-based floorings was investigated. The average modulus of elasticity (MOE) and hardness of the paint film tested were 3.33–5.77 a...

Nowadays titanium alloys are extensively used for aerospace and biomedical applications. However, despite good mechanical properties and excellent corrosion resistance they possess poor wear resistance and a tendency to galling and seizure. In this study the tribological properties of experimental Ti-Si-Zr based alloys were studied using a standard ball-on-disc wear testing system. The wear and...

Friction stir processing was applied for fabricating an aluminum alloy based hybrid nano composite reinforced with nano sized Al2O3 and micro sized graphite particles. A mixture of Al2O3 and graphite particles was packed into a groove with 1 mm width and 4.5 mm depth, which had been cut in 5083 aluminum plate of 10 mm thick. Packed groove was subjected to friction stir processing in order to im...

Abstract: Austenitic stainless steels exhibit a low hardness and weak tribological properties. The wear behaviour of austenitic stainless steel AISI 316 was evaluated through the pin on disc tribological method. For investigating the effect of wear on the changes in microstructure and resistance to wear, optical microscopy and scanning electron microscope were used. The hardness of the worn...
