THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BASIC MODES OF WEAR AND EXPERIENCE IN ENGINEERING PRACTICE
Abstract
When machine elements are examined after a period of use it is seldom possible to relate the damage observed with the simple theories of adhesive or abrasive wear. Examples taken from practice are described and explanations offered based on metallurgical and other changes in the affected surface region. It is concluded that further progress in understanding actual wear situations can only come from a multi‐disciplinary approach.
