The results showed that peak-aged (PA) alloy had a better tribological behavior than under-aged (UA) and over-aged (OA) alloys, which could be attributed to the optimized strength-ductility matching and a better hardness under PA condition. Wear rate and friction coefficient showed great sensitivity to applied sliding velocity and normal load. The wear rate and friction coefficient of the alloy exhibited a reduction trend with the increase in sliding velocity. The low wear rate and friction coefficient of alloy at high velocities were due to the effectively protected film and homogeneous Sn on surface. However, an increase in normal load led to an obvious increment in wear rate. The friction coefficient exhibited a fluctuant trend with the increase of normal loads. The seriously destroyed film and abraded Sn resulted in poor tribological behavior at high normal loads. The Sn particles and lubricant film which includes low shear interfacial lubricating layer and oxide tribolayer are the key to the tribological behavior of Al-Sn-Cu alloy.展开更多

In order to investigate the influence of normal load and sliding speed on the frictional properties of skin and its possible mechanism, tests were carded out on a multi-specimen friction tester. When the normal load increases from 0.1 N to 0.9 N, normal displacement and the friction coefficient of skin increase. The friction coefficient is dependent on the load, indicating that both adhesion and deformation contribute to the friction behaviour. The deformation friction was interpreted using the plough model of friction. When sliding speed increases from 0.5 mm·s^-1 to 4 mm·s^-1, the friction coefficient increases and "stick-slip" phenomena increase, indicating that hysteretic friction contributes to the friction. The hysteretic friction was in- terpreted using schematic of energy translation during the rigid spherical probe sliding on the soft skin surface, which provides an explanation for the influence of the sliding speed on the frictional characteristics of the skin.展开更多

According to the dimensionless load separation principle, the normalization method has been improved by intro- ducing a forcible blunting correction. With the improved normalization method, the J-resistance curves of five different metallic materials of CT and SEB specimens are estimated. The forcible blunting correction of initial crack size plays an important role in the J-resistance curve estima- tion, which is closely related to the strain hardening level of material. The higher level of strain hardening leads to a greater difference in JQ determined by different slopes of the blunting line. If the blunting line coefficient recommended by ASTM E1820-11 is used in the improved nor- realization method, it will lead to greater fracture resistance than that processed by the blunting line coefficient recommended by ISO 12135-2002. Therefore, the influence of the blunting line on the determination of JQ must be taken into full account in the fracture toughness assessment of metallic materials.展开更多

文摘Slide-hold-slide(SHS)test is an essential experimental approach for studying the frictional stability of faults.The origin SHS framework was established based on a consistent constant normal stress,which cannot truly reflect the stress disturbance around fault zones.In this paper,we conducted a series of'dynamic SHS tests',which includes normal stress oscillations in the relaxation stage with different oscillation amplitudes and frequencies on synthetic quartz gouge using a double direct shear assembly.The experimental results reveal that the amplitude of the normal load oscillation has a remarkable effect on the frictional relaxation and healing patterns.However,the frequency of the normal load oscillation has a minor effect.Additionally,the shear loading rate is proportional to the normal loading rate during the relaxation stage,and the normal stiffness of the quartz layer remains nearly constant under various loading conditions.The creep rate during the hold phase is not obviously affected by the normal load oscillation,while the precursory slip is also sensitive to the oscillation amplitude.This study provides insights into the evolution of frictional stability in discontinuities and is beneficial for controlling relative disasters in fault zones.

文摘The scratch test is used for quality control mostly in phenomenological ways,and whether fracture toughness can be obtained from this test is still a matter of debate requiring further elucidation.In this paper,values of the fracture toughness of copper obtained by different scratch-based approaches are compared in order to examine the applicability of scratch-based methodologies to characterize the fracture toughness of soft metals.The scratch response of copper to a Rockwell C diamond indenter is studied under a constant normal load condition.The variations of penetration depth,residual depth,and residual scratch width with applied normal load are quantified from spherical to sphero-conical contact regimes by piecewise functions.A newly proposed size effect law is found to be the most suitable for scratch-based approaches to characterizing the fracture toughness of soft metallic materials with significant plasticity.A simple expression relating the nominal stress to the penetration depth is proposed for the spherical contact regime and gives almost the same value of fracture toughness.The residual scratch width provides useful information on pile-up of material and on the spherical tip radius of the indenter.It is found that the values of the fracture toughness obtained from the microscratch test are influenced by the data range for analysis.
