MECHANISMS OF PVD COATED ELEMENTS SURFACE LAYER DESTRUCTION CAUSED BY PITTING
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2011, Vol 238, Issue 4
Abstract
In the paper, the analyses results concerning the state of the art in the area of wear mechanisms of coated elements working under concentrated friction contact conditions are presented. The critical assessment of the aforementioned mechanisms was performed. The results of research team’s investigations are also shown, taking into consideration the initiation and propagation of rolling contact fatigue of the elements with antiwear coatings, working under conditions of lubricated concentrated contact.<br/><br/>
