Fretting movement is dangerous for machines, because it can cause cracking and surface
degradation. The aim of this work was to characterize fretting-induced material degradation …

The effect of a rough, textured surface and contact orientations on the fretting behavior of self-
mated martensitic 34CrNiMo6+ QT steel was examined via a large annular flat-on-flat …

Designing contacts susceptible to fretting is a challenging task due to uncertainties related to
friction. For example, coefficient of friction has shown to vary as a function of load cycles and …

Fretting fatigue may lead to severe damage in machines. Adhesive material transfer spots in
millimeter scale have previously been observed on fretted surfaces, which have been …

Fretting may deteriorate contacts in terms of wear and cracking. Fretting-induced material
degradation and frictional behaviour was studied experimentally in a large flat-on-flat fretting …

This paper opens up the history of structural analysis and dynamics simulations of Wärtsilä
engines. It cites already published articles and theses with some backgrounds information. It …

An initial friction peak typically occurs in a dry self-mated quenched and tempered steel
fretting contact in gross sliding conditions. The peak is related to adhesive friction and wear …

Fretting fatigue and wear may exist if two parts have small amplitude relative rubbing
between the contacting surfaces. A peak in the coefficient of friction typically occurs during …

This paper describes the simulation-driven design process used in engines technology. The
research question is “how to use research in the structural analysis and dynamics field to …

Fretting is small amplitude reciprocating sliding between surfaces, and it may quickly causes
surface cracks, which can continue growing under cyclic loads, until the structure breaks …
