RESEARCH ON RAIL VEHICLE BRAKE INSERT WEAR
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2010, Vol 233, Issue 5
Abstract
The problem discussed in the paper is rail vehicle brake shoe insert wear. The research results are a basis for the assessment of type and intensity of the wear of brake insert material. The paper includes some results of laboratory, test stand and operation tests. Based on the test results, the wear of the brake insert from certain materials has been assessed. Wear intensity determined insert life. Braking distance values give a basis for implementing, in operation, brake inserts made from certain materials.<br/><br/>

APPLICATION OF A LINEAR WEAR INDICATOR IN THE ASSESSMENT OF RESISTANCE TO ABRASIVE WEAR OF PLOUGHSHARES AND CHISELS
The aim of this work is to present a method of assessing resistance to abrasive wear of ploughshares and chisels using a linear wear indicator that is called “a unit of local changes in the contour.” This indicator is cr...
IMPACT OF ADHESION AND VISCOSITY FORCES ON FRICTION VARIATIONS IN BIO-TRIBOLOGICAL SYSTEMS
The classical theory of lubrication holds that the lubricant dynamic viscosity increments cause the increments of hydrodynamic pressure, as well as friction forces and wear. In the case of high values of hydrodynamic pre...
THE EFFECT OF MAGNETIC PARTICLE CONCENTRATION ON THE FERROFLUID LUBRICITY
The subject of the author’s research, whose results are presented in this article, are the chosen properties of ferrofluid. The author assumes that the concentration of magnetic particles in ferrofluid may significantly...
INFLUENCE OF THE DISPERGATION CONDITIONS OF MONTMORYLONITE IN EPOXY RESIN ON THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES AND MORPHOLOGY OF NANOCOMPOSITES
The paper presents of the investigation of mechanical properties and morphology of epoxy matrix nanocomposites. Montmorylonite (MMT) Closite 30B was used as aluminosilicate nanofiller. It has been found that presence of...
METODA REJESTRACJI OBRAZÓW POWIERZCHNI ROBOCZEJ PRZECIWPRÓBKI PODCZAS WSPÓŁPRACY ŚLIZGOWEJ Z KOMPOZYTAMI NA BAZIE PTFE
W pracy przedstawiono metodę szybkiego prognozowania intensywności zużywania liniowego kompozytów PTFE, poprzez rejestrowanie obrazów powierzchni roboczej tarczy pracującej jako przeciwpróbka, podczas jej ruchu obrotoweg...
