Evolution Properties of Tribological Parameters for Steel Wire Rope under Sliding Contact Conditions

Tribological Characteristics of the Surface Layer of Steel Modified with Boron under Mixed Friction Conditions

The aim of the present work is to determine the influence of technologically produced boron surface layers on the friction parameters in the sliding pairs under mixed friction conditions. The current boronizing processes allow obtaining surface layers of high hardness and high resistance to corrosion and wear, with low brittleness and no tendencies towards cracking However, the operation charac...

Tribological behaviors of several polymer–polymer sliding combinations under dry friction and oil-lubricated conditions

The friction and wear properties of polyamide 66 (PA66), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) sliding against hemselves under dry sliding and oil-lubricated conditions were studied by using a pin-on-disc tribometer. The effect of applied load and sliding peed on tribological behaviors of the polymer–polymer sliding combinations under dry sliding and oil-lubricated cond...

Corrosion Performance and Tribological Properties of Carbonitrided 304 Stainless Steel

Sliding orientation effects on the tribological properties of polytetrafluoroethylene

The chemical inertness, high melting point, and intrinsic lubricity of polytetrafluoroethylene PTFE have been used to develop solid lubricating parts for operation in extreme environments, from frying pans to satellites. The atomic-level mechanisms associated with friction and wear at PTFE surfaces are elucidated here by systematic investigations of the frictional anisotropy measured with respe...

Study on Wire Rope Brace Design Method of Prestressed Braced Steel Moment Frame

To study the design method of sectional area and initial tension of wire rope brace of the prestressed braced steel moment frame structure system, theoretical analysis of this structure system is conducted in this paper. The lateral stiffness formula is derived. It reveals the lateral stiffness is related to the lateral stiffness of bare steel moment frame, story height, the distance between co...
