Wear is very important phenomena which play a vital role while designing any component. It directly affects the life of Abrasive wear are simply caused by passage relatively hard particles or asperities over surface. includes division two surface parts abrasion other mating that situated between friction areas. A systematic study abrasive Silicon has been carried out using body pin-on-disc mach...

As the turbine industries need to manufacture turbine blades made of martensitic stainless steel AISI 420 with high toughness and wear resistance, local laser hardening has become more and more important. In this research, surface of the samples was initially hardened by high-power pulsed laser beam; then, optimum parameters of hardening were calculated and wear resistance of surface hardened s...

This study investigates the effect of carbide particle size on the microstructure, mechanical properties, and abrasive wear resistance of WC-17%Co HVOF-sprayed coatings. The characteristics of WC-1, WC-2, and WC-3 coatings with carbide sizes of 1 µm, 0.9 µm, and 0.5 µm, respectively, were also investigated. WC-1 coating experienced the maximum carbon loss of 42%, while WC-2 and WC-3 coatings un...

In this article, MC nylon/carbon nano tubes (CNTs) composites were prepared by in-situ polymerization method. The friction and wear properties were determined. The sample wear surface morphology carried out by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the wear mechanism was investigated. It was found that the friction coefficient of composites has decreased with the amount of CNTs increasing in th...

Ball-on-disk sliding wear tests were conducted on martensitic NiTi shape memory alloy against an alumina counter ball. The wear features and coefficients of friction of the samples subjected to different loads and sliding cycles were investigated to reveal the degradation process of the NiTi surface. Three stages of degradation were identified, namely, a near-zero wear stage, a transition wear ...

The incidence of caries has declined; however, other dental lesions such as tooth wear are becoming increasingly important. Dental wear is a multifactorial process that may encompass erosion, abrasion, and combinations thereof. Therefore, various methodologies have been applied to evaluate the loss of dental hard tissue and the surface-softened zone in enamel induced by abrasive and erosive cha...

Steel composites reinforced with alumina nanoparticles were prepared by powder metallurgy process. Samples containing two different amounts of carbon (0.35 and 0.55 wt.%) and 0-5 wt.% Al2O3 nanoparticles were fabricated by mixing, compacting and sintering of diffusion bonded Distaloy AE powder. The density, hardness and wear tests were performed on the prepared samples. Fu...

aa8090 is an extra light and deformable group of lithium containing aluminum alloys which have recently replaced some aerospace aluminum alloys, such as 2000 and 7000 series, due to their higher elastic modulus and lower specific weight. in this study, aa8090 matrix composites containing 3, 6 and 9 vol.% sic were cast using a modified stir casting method. the casting billets were deformed thoug...
