    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.

    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.
