Abstract
This article studies the contact pressure and wear distribution of friction blocks during repeated braking processes, as well as the influence of braking duration on friction block wear degradation. Research has found that as the braking duration increases under repeated braking conditions, the wear of the friction block intensifies, and the size of interface damage increases but decreases in quantity. The difference between service conditions and running-in conditions may cause the friction blocks to re-enter the running-in state. During the first braking of repeated braking, the high contact stress area and main wear area of the friction block gradually transfer from the cutting-in end to the center area of the friction block, and finally, under the combined action of thermal expansion, wear behavior, and relative motion, the surface wear of the friction block gradually reaches a dynamic equilibrium state. In the initial stage of the subsequent braking process, the stress concentration phenomenon in the outer ring edge area of the friction block is extremely significant. Under repeated braking conditions, if the duration of each braking is sufficient to bring the friction block to a stable state of dynamic equilibrium, the friction block will exhibit similar wear behavior in subsequent braking conditions.
期刊介绍:
Wear journal is dedicated to the advancement of basic and applied knowledge concerning the nature of wear of materials. Broadly, topics of interest range from development of fundamental understanding of the mechanisms of wear to innovative solutions to practical engineering problems. Authors of experimental studies are expected to comment on the repeatability of the data, and whenever possible, conduct multiple measurements under similar testing conditions. Further, Wear embraces the highest standards of professional ethics, and the detection of matching content, either in written or graphical form, from other publications by the current authors or by others, may result in rejection.
