“…The composite reinforced with alumina presents the largest amount of wear among the composites. This result could be associated with the fact that the size of the alumina particles is one order of magnitude smaller than the other reinforcements [32].…”

“…Neither, to the broken or whole particles included in the MML from the PDR. First, because there were few or no particles observed in the MML; and second, because if there are particles, they are very small broken particles and the effect on the MML will not be significant since there is enough evidence concluding that small particles are not efficient as reinforcements [32,45].…”

“…The scratch loading mode was used for the establishment of the first hardness scale in the pioneering work of Mohs (1824), but the technique is mostly being used nowadays in specialized areas including the visual damage and wear of polymers (Briscoe et al, 1993;Dasari et al, 2004;Misra et al, 2004;Maeda et al, 2005;Mohamed Sani et al, 2005) and the tribological resistance of metallic-base composites (Zhang et al, 1994(Zhang et al, , 1995Liang et al, 1995;Deuis et al, 1996;Wilson et al, 2000;Bolduc et al, 2003). The limited usage to characterize the plastic flow behavior is mostly due to the lack of an appropriate analytical framework to interpret frictional sliding experiments.…”

Over the past decade, many computational studies have explored the mechanics of normal indentation. Quantitative relationships have been well established between the load-displacement hysteresis response and material properties. By contrast, very few studies have investigated broad quantitative aspects of the effects of material properties, especially plastic deformation characteristics, on the frictional sliding response of metals and alloys. The response to instrumented, depth-sensing frictional sliding, hereafter referred to as a scratch test, could potentially be used for material characterization. In addition, it could reproduce a basic tribological event, such as asperity contact and deformation, at different length scales for the multi-scale modeling of wear processes. For these reasons, a comprehensive study was undertaken to investigate the effect of elasto-plastic properties, such as flow strength and strain hardening, on the response to steady-state frictional sliding. Dimensional analysis was used to define scaling variables and universal functions. The dependence of these functions on material properties was assessed through a detailed parametric study using the finite element method. The strain hardening exponent was found to have a greater influence on the scratch hardness and the pile-up height during frictional sliding than observed in frictionless normal indentation. When normalized by the penetration depth, the pileup height can be up to three times larger in frictional sliding than in normal indentation. Furthermore, in contrast to normal indentation, sink-in is not observed during frictional sliding over the wide range of material properties examined. Finally, friction between indenter and indented material was introduced in the finite element model, and quantitative relationships were also established for the limited effects of plastic strain hardening and yield strength on the overall friction coefficient. Aspects of the predictions of computational simulations were compared with experiments on carefully selected metallic systems in which the plastic properties were systematically controlled. The level of accuracy of the predicted frictional response is also assessed by recourse to the finite element method and by comparison with experiment.

“…Garcia-Cordovilla et al [4] investigated the effect of types of reinforcing materials, including Al 2 O 3 and SiC particles, on the wear behavior of Al matrix composites and observed improved wear resistance with SiC particles. [5][6][7][8][9][10] However, it has not been improved (in some cases it was even weakened) when the wear took place by delamination and/or particlefracture mechanisms. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] In most cases, the wear resistance increased with increasing size of reinforcement.…”

In the present work, the effect of an Mg addition on the mechanical properties of the Al-60 vol pct SiCp composites were investigated by uniaxial compression, three-point bending, impact and wear tests (composite-metal and composite-abrasive types). The composites were produced by the pressure-infiltration technique. The composition of the Al matrix was varied between 0 and 8 pct Mg. The mean diameter of the SiC particles was 23 m. Upon addition of Mg, Mg 2 Si precipitated in the matrix and the amount of the porosity dramatically decreased. Mg-alloyed-matrix composites exhibited higher strength, lower toughness, and higher wear resistance than pure-Al-matrix composites. During composite-metal wear testing, wear progressed in two sequential periods (running-in and steady state). Weight loss during wear testing decreased with increasing Mg content of the matrix. The degree of improvement of abrasive resistance depended on the abrasive-grain size. Above 200°C, the composite-abrasive wear resistance decreased with increasing test temperature for all materials.
