Effect of temperature and arc discharge on friction and wear behaviours of carbon strip/copper contact wire in pantograph–catenary systems

TL;DR: In this article, a series of tests on friction and wear performance of pure copper rubbing against carbon strip under electric current have been carried out on a modified pin-on-disc friction-and wear tester.

Friction and wear in high speed sliding with and without electrical current

TL;DR: In this paper, a friction test machine with the capacity up to 75 m/s sliding speed and 100 A current was constructed, and friction and wear performance of a carbon-graphite material under high speed sliding with and without current was studied.

Effect of the electric current on the friction and wear properties of the CNT–Ag–G composites

TL;DR: In this paper, the friction coefficient, wear volume loss and contact voltage drop of composites with and without current were investigated and worn surface were observed using SEM, and the results showed that the worn surface was larger than that of negative brush due to the forming of continuous lubrication film between brush and ring under mechanical wear.

Thermal deformation in frictionally heated contact

TL;DR: In this paper, the transition from smoothly distributed asperity contact to a condition where the surfaces are supported by a few thermal asperities is discussed, including wear, cooling and hydrodynamic lubrication.
