The Archard equation is widely employed to predict wear in engineering practice, but its use
is usually restricted to the cases of sufficiently long wear duration, so the transient running-in …

This paper mainly reports a relative description, impacts of TiC and ZrSiO 4 grains, blending
extents on the slurry wear qualities and microstructural analysis of composite materials. The …

Abstract Al-Si 10 Cu 2 Fe and Al-Si 12 Cu aluminium alloy composites were fabricated by
using various weight percentage of SiC and TiB 2 reinforcement particles in a two-step stir …

This paper presents the first application of topology optimization to designing multifunctional
tribological composites. In particular, composites are designed to minimize temperature rise …

The tribological behaviors of SiCp/Al–Mg–Mn–Cu aluminum matrix composites under solid
solution (labeled as SS sample) and aging treatment (labeled as SA sample) were …

Predicting and optimizing the wear performance of tribological systems is of great interest in
many mechanical applications. Wear modeling based on elastic foundation models can be …

Teeth are biomechanical wonders that evolved over millions of years through natural
selection to be functional and damage tolerant as they are crucial to the survival of the …

Considerable effort has been made to model, predict, and mitigate wear as it has significant
global impact on the environment, economy, and energy consumption. This work proposes …

As a result of the significant economic and environmental burdens caused by wear,
extensive research has been conducted to understand, predict, and control wear to achieve …
