An effort was made to obtain a simplified mathematical model of wear particle motion in a magnetic field formed between flat and dimpled surfaces during the friction process. The magnetic field's experimental values on the dimple edge and inside the dimple for several materials are presented. As a direct result of the internal magnetic field's excitation at the edges of indentations, debris falls into the dimple. This reduces the wear rate by decreasing the number of abrasives in the friction interface. Apparent results expand ideas about the phenomena that naturally occur during the friction of textured surfaces.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
