In China, agricultural irrigation water often contains a lot of suspended sediment which may cause the nozzle wear. In this study, a new numerical simulation combing the Discrete Phase Model and a remeshing algorithm was conducted. The geometric boundary deformation caused by the erosion wear, was considered. The weight loss of the nozzle, the node displacement and the flow field were investigated and discussed. The timestep sensitivity analysis showed that the timestep is very critical in the erosion modeling due to the randomness and the discreteness of the erosion behavior. Based on the simulation results, the major deformation of the boundary wall due to the erosion was found at the corners between outlet portion and contraction portion. Based on this remeshing algorithm, the simulated erosion weight loss of the nozzle is 4.62% less compared with the case without boundary deformation. The boundary deformation changes the pressure and velocity distribution, and eventually changes the sediment distribution inside the nozzle. The average turbulence kinetic energy at the outlet orifice is found to decrease with the erosion time, which is believed to change the nozzle's spray performance eventually.

Dry sliding wear behavior of electro-pressure sintered Fe-Ni and Co-Fe-Ni compacts was investigated. Pin-on-disk wear tests were performed on the sintered Fe-Ni, Co-Fe-Ni disk specimens against alumina $(Al_2O_3)$ and silica $(SiO_2)$ ball counterparts at various loads ranging from 3N to 12N. A constant sliding speed of 0.1m/sec was employed. Wear rate was calculated by dividing the weight loss measured after the test by specific gravity and sliding distance. Worn surfaces and cross sections of them were examined by a scanning electron microscopy, and wear mechanism of the compacts was investigated. Wear characteristics of the compacts were discussed as a function of composition of the compacts. Relationship between the wear rate and mechancial properties of the compact was explored, and effects of the oxide layer that was formed on wearing surface of the compacts on the wear were also studied.

Dry sliding wear behavior of low carbon dual phase steel, of which microstructure consists of hard martensite in a ductile ferrite matrix, has been investigated. The wear characteristics of the dual phase steel was compared with that of a plain carbon steel which was normalized at $950^{\circ}C$ for 30min and then air-cooled. Dry sliding wear tests were carried out using a pin-on-disk type tester at various loads of 1N to 10N under a constant sliding speed condition of 0.2m/sec against an AISI 52100 bearing steel ball at room temperature. The sliding distance was fixed as 1000m for all wear tests. The wear rate was calculated by dividing the weight loss measured to the accuracy of $10^{-5}g$ by the specific gravity and sliding distance. The worn surfaces and wear debris were analyzed by SEM, EDS and a profilomter. Micro vickers hardness values of the cross section of worn surface were measured to analyze strain hardening behavior underneath the wearing surfaces. The were rate of the dual phase steel was lower than the plain carbon steel. Oxidation on the sliding surface and strain hardening were attributed for the higher wear resistance of the dual phase steel.

This paper is studied to know corrowive wear characteristics of austempered ductile cast ironin corrosive environments against mating SM45C hardened two test pieces in distilled water and NaCl aqueous solution. The corrosive wear mechanism was investigated by scanning electron microscopy and retained austenite volume fraction was investigated by X-ray diffractometer. The experimental result show that the corrosive wear characteristics depend largely on the $\textrm{Fe(OH)}_{3}$which is influenced by the critical sliding distance $L_{cr}$ and $L_{cr}$ shorted with increasing NaCl concentration. It was found that the carbides in matrix have a significant effect on their corrosive wear resisance and the fine acicular bainite showed corrosive wear resistance stronger than that of the coarse acicular and platelet bainite. From above results the model of corrosive wear mechanism in corrosive environments is proposed.

The wear behavior of alumina short fiber reinforced tin-bronze matrix composites was studied at the room temperature and an elevated temperature. The effect of the composition of specimens and the variation of wear conditions on the wear properties was examined by a pin-on-disc type wear testing machine. The wear mechanism according to the compositon of specimens at various wear conditions was discussed by the observation of the microstructure and the analysis of the composition on the worn surfaces. A thicker oxide layer on worn surfaces led to a lower wear loss because of the lubricating effect of oxide layers between pin and disc. As the testing temperature was raised to 350$^{\circ}$C, the fiber reinforced composites exibited markedly increased wear resistance even at a higher applied load since the reinforcement of composites with alumina fibers was not affected to a large extent by raising temperature. The results obtained by AES and EDS analysis indicated that the oxide layer of the worn surfaces formed at 350$^{\circ}$C was proved as Fe-oxide. This was explained by the faster formation of Fe-oxide than Cu-oxide at 350$^{\circ}$C.

Severe wear of the anterior teeth facilitates the loss of anterior guidance, which protects the posterior teeth from wear during excursive movement. Additionally, when treating patients with collapsed occlusion due to multiple tooth loss and tooth wear, it is important to determine the presence of vertical dimension loss through accurate clinical and radiographic examinations and diagnostic wax-up. The patient of this case is a 44-year-old female patient who complained of overall tooth wear and loss of posterior teeth due to bruxism and clenching habits, visited the hospital with the address of restoring masticatory function and improving aesthetic appearance through prosthetic treatment. Through model analysis and diagnostic wax-up, an increase in vertical dimension was determined, and full mouth restoration with fixed prostheses was planned. The degree of adaptation to the vertical dimension was confirmed step by step using an occlusal splint designed with CAD (Computer aided design) software and 3-D (3-Dimensional) printed, and then restored with provisional restoration and after a 4-month adaptation period, the entire dentition was restored with metal ceramic crowns and implants. Through this procedure, satisfactory treatment results were obtained in terms of function and aesthetics.

The purpose of this study was to compare the wear resistance of heat pressure-cured microcomposite(SR-Isosit-N), photo-cured microcomposite(Dentalcolor), unfilled heat-cured resin(Thermojel) and that of human enmel. Specimens were made with specially designed die and finally polished with #3,000 diamond paste. After 100,000 strokes of tooth brushing at electric tooth-brushing machine, mean thickness loss of each specimen was measured by using surface profile and integration. The results were as follows 1. Mean thickness loss were $84.3{\pm}27.3{\mu}m$ in unfiled heat-cured resin, $9.4{\pm}2.5{\mu}m$ in photocured microcomposite, $7.6{\pm}2.1{\mu}m$ in heat.pressure-cured microcomposite and $0.97{\pm}0.42{\mu}m$ in enamel. 2. Heat.pressure-cured microcomposite and photo-cured microcomposite had no difference in mean thickness loss(p>0.05). 3. Unfilled resin and microcomposite had much differences in mean thickness loss (p<0.005). 4. ha resins used in this experiment had too much mean thickness loss as compared with enamel (p<0.005).

Abrasive wear between piston ring face and cylinder liner is an extremely unpredictable and hard-to-reproduce phenomenon that significantly decreases engine performance. Wear by abrasion are forms of wear caused by contact between a particle and solid material. Abrasive wear is the loss of material by the passage of hard particles over a surface. From the pin-on-disk test, particle dent test and scuffing test, abrasive wear characteristics of diesel engine cylinder liner-piston ring have been investigated. Pin-on-disk test results indicate that abrasive wear resistance is not simply related to the hardness of materials, but is influenced also by the microstructure, temperature, lubricity and micro- fracture properties. In particle dent test, dent resistance stress decreases with increasing temperature. From the scuffing test by using pin-on-disk tester, scuffing mechanisms for the soft coating and hard coating were proposed and experimentally confirmed.
