We proposed new arc-type wheel profiles to improve severe flange wear of conventional wheel profile coned 1:40. We designed many candidate wheel profiles and analyzed the geometric characteristics, dynamic performance and stress at contact points to draw out the final profiles. From the analysis result, we chose two cases of profiles and applied to wheels of test train. Tests carried out in service line to analyze the dynamic performance and verify the wear reduction for two cases of profiles. Test results shows the equal level of dynamic performance and the improvement of wheel flange wear compared with the conventional wheel profile.

The rolling-stocks on conventional line have suffered wheel problems due to the incompatibility between wheel and track condition. Especially, The 1:40 coned wheel profile's wear is very severe and these increase wheel maintenance cost. Thus we designed several arc-type wheel profiles coned 1:/20 to reduce the wheel flange wear and analyzed the dynamic performance of designed profiles. Tests carried out in service line to analyse the dynamic performance and verify the wear reduction for two cases of profiles. Test results shows the equal level of dynamic performance and the improvement of wheel flange wear compared with the conical wheel profile coned 1:40.

Cutting tool life monitoring is a critical element needed for designing unmanned machining systems. This paper describes a tool wear measurement system using computer vision which repeatedly measures flank and crater wear of a single point cutting tool. This direct tool wear measurement method is based on an interactive procedure utilizing a image processor and multi-vision sensors. A measurement software calcultes 7 parameters to characterize flank and crater wear. Performance test revealed that the computer vision technique provides precise, absolute tool-wear quantification and reduces human maesurement errors.

Sintered materials have been applied widely in Valve Seat Inserts (VSI). The amount of wear on VSIs increases when used in gas (LPG, CNG) engines because of their dry environments. In this paper, two newly developed high performance VSI materials for gas engines are introduced. These materials applied new techniques, which are both high performance hard particle and new distribution method of solid lubricant, to increase wear resistance.

Most recent, Plasma ceramic spray is used on parts of tribosystem, has been investigated on the tribological performance. The application of ceramic coatings by plasma spray has become essential in tribosystems to produce better wear resistance and longer life in various conditions. The purpose of this work was to investigate the wear behavior of $8%Y_2O_3-ZrO_2$ coating due to temperatures of post-spay heat treatment. The plasma-sprayed $8%Y_2O_3--Zirconia$ coating was idiscussed to know the relationship between phase transformations and temperatures of post- spray heat treatment. Wear tests was carried out with ball on disk type on normal load of 50N, 70N and 90N under room temperature. The transformation of phase and the value of residual stress were measured by X-ray diffraction method(XRD). Tribological characteristics and wear mechanisms of coatings was observed by SEM. The tribologieal wear performance was discussed a point of view for residual stress. Consequently. post-spray heat treatment plays an important role in decreasing residual stress. Residual stress in coating system has a significant influence on the wear mechanism of coating.

Generally, there are many types of data, such as wear data or irregularity data, are detected for analyzing railway performance. The analysis of railroad wear or irregularity data is most effective method for the efficient railway maintenance. Especially, the track damaged directly by train, have as important position with the inspection data. This study suggest the Life-Cycle performance analysis method and process of railroad by analyzing two types of data, wear data and irregularity data. This analysis methods can be applied to suggest the Life-Cycle performance of railroad based on environmental factors or design factors, such as sleeper type, roadbed type, cant, the radius of curvature, speed, maintenance history and so on.

The Part of slot on rotary compressor which plays an important part of the reliability and performance is studied on machinability and the wear characteristics for the specimen made by sand mold and permanent mold. The experiment are used the face cutter of milling machine which make the processing surface like broaching process and rollblock wear test machine. Permanent-mold casting iron is not affected by variation of RPM of milling machine, but sand-mold cast-iron is improved to increasing RPM. Also sand-mold casting iron shows superior wear characteristic to permanent-mold casting iron. This results from harder matrix of pearlite structure and self-lubrication characteristics of graphite. And wear particles in tested oil show shape and size similar to severe wear particles of oil taken from rotary compressor. The material and surface condition of slot play important part of the reliability and performance.

This paper describes the characteristics of wheel wear of high speed train running on the conventional line. Conventional line has many curved tracks that cause severe wheel flange wear. The influences of lubrication, cant deficiency, curve radius on wheel wear are also described considering the operation performance of the highspeed trainset. A method of calculation using contact patch work model is presented for determination of the evolution by wear of railway wheels.

In this study, in order to observe the change in the amount of Tire and Road Wear Particles and the ratio of tire components in it according to the tire wear resistance performance, carried out the evaluation by varying the vulcanization reaction design of the tire tread rubber. In addition, in order to improve the reliability of the evaluation of Tire and Road Wear Particles, the evaluation was performed indoor laboratory test equipment that simulates the condition on real driving to exclude various environmental influences including minerals, driver's habits, road surface, weather, tire structure and pattern designs. After the evaluation in closed space, it is estimated that the amount of collected Tire and Road Wear Particles is 84% compared to 100% of the tire and road wear loss weight, of which 96.4~97.7% was around the road and 2.3~3.6% was in the air. As a result of analy sis of the collected Tire and Road Wear particles, the tire component existed 63~75% in the Tire and Road Wear Particles depending on the wear resistance performance of the tire.

A leakage performance test and an endurance performance test of a 75 ton class turbopump mechanical face seal are performed using water under high speed and high temperature environment. A prototype mechanical face seal is manufactured for the purpose of sealing of fuel between a fuel pump and turbine. By simulating operating condition experimentally, the leakage rate and seal carbon wear rate are obtained to evaluate the performance of the prototype mechanical face seal. The test results show the acceptable leakage performance and reasonable wear tendency as well.
