Wear and friction properties depend on many parameters such as normal load and material
hardness. However, coupled contributions of microstructure and abrasive particle size are …

Tunnel boring machine (TBM) cutter ring material is a type of C–Cr–Mo–V alloy steel which
possesses high hardness and wear resistance. To systematically study the effect of …

Little attention has been paid to the role of stacking fault energy (SFE) in the two-body
abrasive wear of austenitic steels. Using a pin-abrasion test with 220 grit garnet paper as the …

The tribological properties of additive manufactured titanium alloy reflect its machinability,
and further affect the tool wear during machining. This paper investigated the tribological …

Friction tests between a ferrite-martensite dual phase steel, with different martensite volume
fractions (48–98%), and an abrasive paper with different sizes (15–200 µm) under various …

The paper continues the investigation focused on various factors of wear of coatings
deposited on metal-cutting tools. The paper presents the results of the investigation focused …

The low-speed, high-torque, orbital hydraulic motor is a component that often uses mineral
oil to convert hydraulic energy into the rotational motion of a shaft. The main purpose of our …

This first regional issue published in STMP highlights the potential and importance of the
research carried out in Latin America regarding surface engineering and tribology. In order …

The effect of structure refinement on wear resistance of high chromium cast irons was
investigated. The alloys were casted in molds containing a chill at the bottom in order to …

The main objective of this work was to develop a novel computational strategy that is able to
predict wear regime operation in worn surfaces. The image data were taken from worn …
