Some thoughts on the effect of elastic rebounds on the boundaries of the aqueous erosion-corrosion map

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate elastic effects on the boundaries of the aqueous erosion-corrosion map and compare the results with experimental results, showing that there was a wide variation between the elasticity predictions of various models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Some indentation and sliding experiments on single crystal and polycrystalline materials

TL;DR: In this article, a microhardness tester modified to enable sliding of the specimens past the indenter and incorporating the means for the measurement of frictional force using strain gages was used in this investigation.

The effect of lubrication on the friction and wear of Biolox®delta.

TL;DR: It is shown conclusively that the wear mechanisms for Biolox®delta clearly depend on the lubricant used, even where wear rates were similar, even though they were an order of magnitude higher in water.

Micro-electrical discharge coating of Titanium alloy using WS2 and Brass P/M electrode

TL;DR: In this article, a novel technique for localized solid lubrication coating in intricate structures was proposed, where green compact powder metallurgy electrodes (P/M) (diameter: 1 mm to 1.25 mm) were used.

Nanoindentation of chemical-vapor deposited Al2O3 hard coatings at elevated temperatures

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive overview of guidelines on how to perform nanoindentation measurements on hard coatings at elevated temperatures is provided, and a reduction of the hardness and reduced modulus was observed for both coating systems although more accentuated for the κ-Al 2 O 3 coating.
