Sliding wear tests of a titanium-matrix composite (TMC) against M35 steel were performed at room temperature. To improve the wear performance of the TMC, an attempt was made to induce a protective tribofilm by artificially supplying nanoscale materials, viz. multilayer graphene (MLG), Fe2O3, and their composite and mixture, onto the sliding tracks. Irrespective of the load, MLG or Fe2O3 additives could

Comments on the Theory of Fluid Flow Between Solids with Anisotropic Roughness Tribol. Lett. (IF 2.566) Pub Date : 2020-12-08 B. N. J. Persson
I consider fluid flow at the interface between solids with random roughness. For anisotropic roughness, obtained by stretching isotropic roughness in the x-direction by a factor of \(\gamma ^{1/2}\) and in the y-direction with a factor of \(\gamma ^{-1/2}\), I give an argument for why the flow conductivity in the critical junction theory should be proportional to \(\gamma \) in the x-direction and

Ionic liquids (ILs) are potential lubricant additives that can potentially perform simultaneously as friction modifiers and anti-wear agents. In addition, they possess good thermal stability, they are non-flammable, they have high polarity with negligible volatility, etc. These characteristics make them also ideal for polar lubricants, like water-based fluids.

Fluid Leakage in Metallic Seals Tribol. Lett. (IF 2.566) Pub Date : 2020-11-07 F. J. Fischer, K. Schmitz, A. Tiwari, B. N. J. Persson
Metallic seals are crucial machine elements in many important applications, e.g., in ultrahigh vacuum systems. Due to the high elastic modulus of metals, and the surface roughness which exists on all solid surfaces, if no plastic deformation would occur one expects in most cases large fluid flow channels between the contacting metallic bodies, and large fluid leakage. However, in most applications
