Using this method, experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of residual compressive stress on the tribological properties of the nickel-based superalloy Ni16Cr13Co4Mo. The results indicate that residual stress significantly affects the friction behavior and wear resistance of the superalloy. The stabilization time of the friction coefficient as well as the wear rate reaches a minimum under moderate residual compressive stresses. Moderate residual compressive stress can facilitate the formation of a tribo-oxide layer and enhance its bonding strength with the substrate, thereby shortening the time for stabilization of the friction coefficient and reducing the wear rate. Finite element simulation of static ball-on-disc contact model also shows that residual stress alters the internal stress distribution inside the alloy, and changes its yield and plastic behavior. Under moderate residual compressive stress, a reduction in maximum von Mises stress can be achieved, which is consistent with the variation rule of friction coefficient and wear rate in the tests.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":23238,"journal":{"name":"Tribology International","volume":"202 ","pages":"Article 110326"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142535905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two geometries of peripheral wiper inserts termed as LM (groove width-1000 mm, groove depth-65 mm) and GT (groove width-720 mm, groove depth-20 mm) are evaluated at two levels of cutting speeds (50 m/min and 60 m/min) and three levels of feed rates (0.10 mm/rev, 0.15 mm/rev, and 0.20 mm/rev) while keeping the geometry of central stepped insert constant.

Results demonstrate that strong adhesion at the interface and similar mechanical properties between steel and Al layers facilitate co-deformation, crucial for maintaining the integrity of the composite structure.
