PROBLEMS OF TECHNOLOGICAL TREATMENT OF THE SURFACE LAYER IN THE ASPECT OF THE SCUFFING PERFORMANCE. PART I: THE SCUFFING PROGNOSTICATION

Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2015, Vol 263, Issue 5

Abstract

The article presents a review of modern knowledge concerning mechanisms of scuffing activation and the evaluation of the level of its application in the prediction of this process. Five basic groups (temperature, debris, energetic, structural and boundary layer durability) of parameters/features were selected that can determine the resistance of the surface layer to this type of catastrophic wear. The analysis of acquired data indicated that models representing the interdependence of individual features of the tribosystem (friction pair materials, the type of the lubricating medium and the regime of its operation, and the environment), which are used to predict the onset of scuffing, can be based on different premises. A topological concept of the surface layer with increased scuffing performance was proposed using this approach. Additionally, a brief terminological analysis of the scuffing definitions was carried out. Some inaccuracies appearing in the scientific works in the context of determining scuffing were indicated.
