THE EFFECT OF ABRASIVE SOIL MASS DENSITY ON THE TRIBOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF STEEL

Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2018, Vol 281, Issue 5

Abstract

Even though soil mass density is among the basic characteristics of a soil mass, it has not been analysed in terms of wear impact on steel. This paper presents the results of testing for the wear of abrasion-resistant steel within a soil mass with varied density. The experiment was carried out under laboratory conditions using the “rotating bowl” method in a medium soil with varied moisture content. The following were determined: mass wear, an assessment of the friction coefficient development, and the image of the surface after the friction test. It was found that, within a soil mass with a significant plastic fraction content, the greatest wear of soil occurred for a density of approx. 1.4 g/cm3.<br/><br/>
