    Dry sliding friction and wear of Al 6061 and Al 6082 alloys under different normal loads
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2019) Srinivasula Reddy, I.; Kaliveeran, V.
    The current research work addresses evolution of coefficient of friction over sliding distance. Friction and wear tests were conducted using pin on disk type tribometer. The stabilized friction coefficient values under normal load of 10 N and 15 N for Al 6061 were noted as 0.5 and 0.58 respectively. Corresponding friction coefficient values for Al 6082 were noted as 0.6 and 0.45 respectively. Equation to calculate wear volume was derived for cylinder on flat contact. The dominant wear mechanisms were justified with the images of the disk specimens captured using optical microscope. Increase in wear volume resulting from increase in normal load was observed for Al 6061 and Al 6082 alloys. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Effect of sliding speed and rise in temperature at the contact interface on coefficient of friction during full sliding of SS304
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2019) Palanikumar, P.; Gnanasekaran, N.; Subrahmanya, K.; Kaliveeran, V.
    The present study focuses on the effect of sliding speed and rise in temperature on the coefficient of friction at the contact interface of SS304 alloys subjected to full sliding. Dry sliding experiments were conducted on Rotatory Type Pin on Disk Tribometer. Pins of 3 mm radius and 165 mm diameter circular disk having flat surface were fabricated to simulate Hertzian contact configuration. Experiments were conducted at three different sliding speeds of 1 m/s, 2 m/s and 3 m/s under constant normal load of 1 kg. All the experiments were conducted up to sliding distance of 100 m. From the full sliding experiments, the coefficient of friction decreased with increase in sliding speed and the stabilized coefficient of friction for SS304 alloy was in the range of 0.15-0.28. The temperatures due to friction were measured using K-type thermocouples and they were located to the pins at 4 mm and 7 mm distance from the contact surface. The temperature at the contact surface during dry sliding experiment was obtained from the acquired data using inverse heat transfer method. Temperature measured at different locations along the longitudinal axis of the pin increased with increase in sliding speed and sliding distance. The increase in temperature at the contact interface was observed due to increase in friction at the contact interface during sliding. The temperature had shown stabilized trend, when the coefficient of friction curve got stabilized during sliding process. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd.

    Sliding of various ductile materials (Al 6061, Al 6082) using pin on disc setup
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2019) Srinivasula Reddy, I.; Kaliveeran, V.
    The present study focuses on understanding the variation of coefficient of friction over a period of time. At various sliding cycles, the coefficient of friction was noted from the well-controlled sliding experiments. Friction tests were conducted using Aluminium alloys (Al 6061 and Al 6082) with 10 N constant normal load and at sliding speed of 1.5 m/s. The detailed friction results have been presented and discussed to understand the influence of coefficient of friction on the contact tractions at the interface. The obtained friction results are compared with the results mentioned in literature, where reciprocating sliding experiments were conducted. From this comparison, it is concluded that the formation of oxide and nitride layers are dominant, when the friction tests are conducted using pin on disc setup. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd.
