The fractal-based method for describing rubbed surface texture has aroused great interest. The determination of rubbed surface topography is believed to be extremely important in the areas of contact mechanics, adhesion and friction. In order to describe topography of the rubbed surface, the wear test was carried out with annular surfaces of wear testing specimens in dry friction. furthermore, the relation between the fractal dimensions and the frictional conditions are also investigated and fractal descriptors was applied to rubbed surface with image processing. Fractal dimension can be determined by sum of intensity difference of image surface pixel. Fractal dimension increased according as the applied load and sliding distance increase. Topography of the rubbed surface can be effectively obtained by fractal dimensions.

Sintered metallic brake pads and low alloy heat resistance steel disks are applied to mechanical brake systems in high energy moving machines that are associated with recently developed 200km/h trains. This has led to the speed-up of conventional urban rapid transit. In this study, we use a lab-scale dynamometer to investigate the effects of the composition of friction materials on the tribological characteristics of sintered metallic brake pads and low alloy heat resistance steel under dry sliding conditions. We conduct test under a continuous pressure of 5.5 MPa at various speeds. To determine the optimal composition of friction materials for 200 km/h train, we test and the evaluate frictional characteristics such as friction coefficients, friction stability, wear rate, and the temperature of friction material, which depend on the relative composition of the Cu-Sn and Fe components. The results clearly demonstrate that the average friction coefficient is lower for all speed conditions, when a large quantity of iron power is added. The specimen of 25 wt% iron powder that was added decreased the wear of the friction materials and the roughness of the disc surface. However when 35 wt% iron powder was added, the disc roughness and the wear rate of friction materials increased By increasing the amount of iron powder, the surface roughness, and temperature of the friction materials increased, so the average friction coefficients decreased. An oxidation layer of $Fe_2O_3$ was formed on both friction surfaces.

고온가압소결(Hot Pressing) 된 다이아몬드 공구용 Co-Fe, Co-Ni계 금속본드의 상온 건식 미끄럼 마멸시험을 행하고, 조성에 따른 각 본드의 마멸 특성을 비교하고 마멸 기구를 규명하였다. 미끄럼 마멸시험은 pin-on-disk 형태의 마멸시험기를 사용하여 각 조성의 성분, 적용하중 그리고 마멸상대재를 변수로 상온, 대기 중에서 실시되었다. 마멸속도는 마멸시험 전후의 시편의 무게 감량을 이론밀도와 거리로 나누어 계산되었다. 마멸기구의 규명을 위하여 시험된 시편의 마멸면과 마멸단면을 SEM과 EDS를 이용하여 분석하였다. 시험 결과 Co-Fe system의 경우 그 마멸속도는 마멸상대재의 영향보다는 Fe 첨가에 따른 시편의 미세조직과 기계적 성질의 차이에 따라 크게 변화하였다. 그러나 Co-Ni system의 마멸속도는 마멸 상대재에 따라 크게 변화하는 것이 관찰되었다. $Al_2$O$_3$를 상대재로 마멸된 경우에는 마멸속도가 시편/상대재 접촉면에서 형성되는 산화층의 영향을 크게 받았고, glass bead(83% SiO$_2$)를 상대재로 한 경우에는 시편의 경도와 마멸속도는 서로 반비례하였다.

The effect of silver particle introduction on the rolling friction of AISI 52100 steel pairs has been investigated. Experiments ware performed in dry conditions using a thrust bearing-type rolling test rig at a load range of 12-960 N and a sliding velocity range of 8-785 mm/sec with pure (99.99%) silver particles. Results showed that introduced silver particles formed transfer layers, which protected the virgin bearing surfaces and resulted in the low lolling friction. By changing the quantity of silver particles, transitions in the rolling friction were found. Results also showed that the variations in normal load and rolling speed also affected the rolling friction behavior. Analyses of SEM and EPMA showed that the formation the transfer layer was mainly governed by the silver particle quantity, normal load and rolling speed, and this resulted in the different behavior of rolling friction. In this study, it was found that the low and stable rolling friction was resulted from the, shakedown phenomena occurred at the silver transfer layer.

압전 구동기를 사용하여 상온 대기 중에서 프레팅 마멸 시험을 수행하기 위한 장치를 개발하였다. 구동기의 특성상 사용이 간편하며, 중력에 의한 가하중 방식을 채택하여 구조를 매우 단순화하였다. 개발된 시험기는 구동 시스템 자체의 마멸로 인한 미끄럼 운동 범위의 오차를 우려할 필요가 없다는 상대적 장점을 가진다. 본 연구에서 사용한 시험편의 경우 약 $600{\mu}m$ 이상 직경의 마멸흔이 생성되는 조건에서의 미끄럼 운동 범위의 평균 값 및 진폭의 변동은 각각 $3.3{\mu}m$ 과 $2.3{\mu}m$ 이내인 것으로 측정되었으며, 마멸흔의 크기에 비추어 볼 때 이는 만족할 만한 운동 정밀도라 판단된다. 제작된 시험기를 사용하여 인코넬 690 튜브의 프레팅 마멸 시험을 수행하였다. 수직 하중 10N 및 15N 에서 $10^6$ 사이클 동안 미끄럼 진폭을 최대 $82.7{\mu}m$까지 변화시킨 시험 결과를 정량화 하였으며, 이로부터 마멸 상수를 구하였다 또한 마멸 자국의 크기와 마멸 부피로부터 마멸 진행 거동이 상이한 세 영역을 구별할 수 있었다. 전자현미경 관찰을 통해 마멸흔을 살펴보았으며, 돌출부, 판상 층, 거친 모재 표면 등과 여기에 생성된 균열 등이 관찰되었다. 이를 통해 인코넬 690 튜브의 프레팅 마멸은 연삭 마멸과 더불어 입자의 분리 및 압착, 소성 변형과 판상 층의 형성, 균열의 생성 및 박리 등의 복합적 과정으로 진행됨을 알 수 있었다.

This paper presents the friction characteristics of pb-fres pin bushing bearings for an automotive gasoline engine. The external load is 100 N to 600 N and the speed of the pin bushing bearing is 1000 rpm to 3000 rpm against the rubbing surfaces. And the contact modes of rubbing surfaces between a piston pin and a pb-free pin bushing specimen are a dry friction, an oil lubricated friction and a mixed friction that is starved by a lack of engine oil. Two influential factors of a contact rubbing modes and a material property are very important parameters on the tribological performance of a friction characteristic between a piston pin and a pb-free pin bushing. The experimental result shows that the pin bushing speed of 2000 rpm shows a typical oil film lubricated sliding contact mode in which means that as the applied load is increased, the friction loss is increasing. But other contact mode depending on the speed and the load may affect to the fiction coefficient without a regular and uniform trend. In summary, the oil lubricated rubbing surface definitely decreases a running-in period in short and increase oil film stiffness, and this may leads the reduction of a friction loss.

With the recent remarkable improvements in the average speeds of contemporary trains, a necessity has arisen for the development of new friction modifiers to improve adhesion characteristics at the wheel-rail interface. The friction modifier must be designed to reduce slippage or sliding of the trains' wheels on the rails under conditions of rapid acceleration or braking without excessive rolling contact wear. In this study, a novel composite material consisting of metal, ceramic, and polymer is proposed as a friction modifier to improve adhesion between wheels and rails. A blend of Al-6Cu-0.5Mg metallic powder, $Al_2O_3$ ceramic powder, and Bakelite-based polymer in various weight-fractions is hot-pressed at $150^{\circ}C$ to form a bulk composite material. Variation in the adhesion coefficient is evaluated using a high-speed wheel-rail friction tester, with and without application of the composite friction modifier, under both dry and wet conditions. The effect of varying the weighting fractions of metal and ceramic friction powders is detailed in the paper.

This work aims to develop a dry lubricant for oilless bush, especially a solid lubricant, thereby creating a coating method with improved properties of anti-friction and load-carrying capacity without oil lubrication. In this work, spherical-shaped powders of thermosetting resin such as polyimide (PI) are mixed with a binder matrix obtained by mixing a fluorocarbon compound resin such as Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or Ethylene tetra fluoro ethylene (ETFE) with itself or with a non-fluorocarbon thermoplastic resin such as Polyether ether ketone (PEEK). And these dry lubricant mixtures are thickly coated (200-300 mm in the thickness) on the inner surface of the bush by using a wet-typed air-spray deposition method. It was found that the load-carrying capacity of the solid lubricant for excavator bush (60 mm in diameter) that operates under a high load condition (at 40 MPa) is greatly improved owing to the spherical-shaped powders of thermosetting resin. In addition, the coefficient of friction at the sliding surface is also reduced less than 0.1. Thick coating also lowers the contact stress at the edge of a bush that results in better tribological performances. The result suggests that the lubrication performance and durability life of the bush can be remarkably improved even without lubrication (oil or grease).
