GRAPHITE EXPANDED AS A FILM-FORMING MATERIAL ON A STEEL SURFACE
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2017, Vol 275, Issue 5
Abstract
The results of observational studies of the emerging graphite film on the steel surface are presented. The association – steel pin and graphite element – reciprocating motion was employed. The results show the possible mechanism of graphite film formation for the various stages of association work under various operating conditions. For a water-impregnated graphite element, the film forming process takes place faster than for a dry element.

Microbearings - new tribology problems and challenges
Nonlinear forms of vibrations in rotors dynamics, especially after exceeding the stability limit, as well as the assessment of not precise and randomly variable input parameters still constitute the research subject in m...
THE EFFECT OF CONSTRAINT CONDITIONS ON THE CONTACT PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION OF MULTI-DISC FRICTION CLUTCHES
High thermal stresses generated between the contact surfaces in a clutch system, e.g., multi-disc friction clutch (back plate, clutch discs, separators, and piston), due to the friction heat generated during the slipping...
ABRASIVE WEAR MECHANISMS OF THIN PVD COATINGS AFTER BALL-CRATERING TESTS
The article presents the wear mechanisms of thin PVD coatings during abrasive wear the ball-cratering method. Abrasive wear tests were performed on chosen antiwear PVD coatings with the optimum work parameters of frictio...
