Fretting fatigue is a fatigue damage process that occurs when two surfaces in contact with
each other are subjected to relative micro-slip, causing a reduced fatigue life with respect to …

Finite element method (FEM) has been extensively applied in predicting fretting wear due to
its advantage in solving problems like non-linearity of boundary conditions. This work …

The appearance of fretting fatigue cracks in bolted sheets limits their lifetime. Furthermore,
repairing these failures requires much effort due to needing to replace the components …

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 …

Heating due to frictional sliding is an important phenomenon in tribological applications. The
present study develops a numerical method based on the finite elements (FE) for modelling …

Due to the high temperature toughness and low thermal conductivity of 2.25 Cr1Mo0. 25V
material, the rake face of the tool can easily wear out during the cutting process, which …

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 …
