The intention of this paper is to make a comprehensive discussion on self-lubricating
ceramics along with the application of Cu/CuO as a solid lubricant. So, the article starts with …

Abstract Effect of different (2, 2.5, 3) mol.% yttria inside zirconia matrix alongside the effect of
3 mol.% Ytria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) inside the alumina matrix is studied. High hardness …

A case study is carried out to reveal the fracture mechanism of self-lubricating inserts. The
insert is made up of 98.5 wt% Zirconia Toughened Alumina (ZTA) reinforced with 1.5 wt …

Water-lubricated bearings have become an important component of marine propulsion
systems due to the requirements of environmental friendliness and concealability. However …

This study presents a novel approach for online monitoring of surface roughness in the
context of Industry 4.0. Aluminum 5052 is machined, and the sound emitted is captured with …

In this analysis, functional properties of zirconia toughened alumina (ZTA) are improved by
doping 1.5 wt.% copper oxide (CuO). The powders of composites are prepared through co …

This research work explored and compared the experimental performance of a solar still
having novel octagonal‐pyramid shape with a single slope solar still. It is found that the …

This investigation focused to develop homogeneous self-lubricating composites of
CuO/MgO/ZTA through powder metallurgy route. FESEM and XRD plots are carried out to …

Due to high reliability, longer useful life and sustainability in harsh environment, zirconia
toughened alumina (ZTA) are prominent composite used by multifarious industries. In …

This investigation delves into the behavior of copper oxide (CuO) as a solid lubricant inside
zirconia toughened alumina (ZTA) ceramic composites. The investigation starts with the …
