Calculations of the impact of friction and wear on energy consumption, economic
expenditure, and CO 2 emissions are presented on a global scale. This impact study covers …

This paper reviews the current state of the art in the simulation of the mechanical behavior of
polycrystalline materials by means of computational homogenization. The key ingredients of …

Fretting wear is a material damage in contact surfaces due to micro relative displacement
between two bodies. It causes some unexpected results, such as loosening of fasteners or …

A comparison study of the efficiency and accuracy of a variety of meshless trial and test
functions is presented in this paper, based on the general concept of the meshless local …

This paper investigates the effects of fretting wear on frictional contacts. A high frequency
friction rig is used to measure the evolution of hysteresis loops, friction coefficient and …

The global thermal spray coatings market was valued at USD 10.1 billion in 2019 and is
expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 3.9% from 2020 to 2027. Carbide …

This paper investigates the effect of temperature (between 24° C and 450° C) on the wear
rate and friction coefficient of a high strength alloy steel (Super-CMV) in gross sliding fretting …

Unlike many other surface treatment techniques, such as shot peening (SP), low plasticity
burnishing (LPB), ultrasonic surface rolling process (USRP), ultrasonic nanocrystal surface …

Fretting wear is a surface damage phenomenon that occurs at contacting surfaces due to the
micro relative movements of contacting surfaces. It is not easy to consider the parametric …

Wear tests involving thousands of operating cycles can be impractical and costly. Therefore,
the use of numerical methods to predict surface evolution due to wear can be a good …
