Optimizing Machining Efficiency in High-Speed Milling of Super Duplex Stainless Steel with SiAlON Ceramic Inserts

Super duplex stainless steels (SDSSs) are widely utilized across industries owing to their remarkable mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. However, machining SDSS presents considerable challenges, particularly at high speeds. This study investigates the machinability of SDSS grade SAF 2507 (UNS S32750) under high-speed milling conditions using SiAlON insert tools. Comprehensive analysis of key machinability indicators, including chip compression ratio, chip analysis, shear angle, tool wear, and friction conditions, reveals that lower cutting speeds optimize machining performance, reducing cutting forces and improving chip formation. Finite element analysis (FEA) corroborates the efficacy of lower speeds and moderate feed rates. Furthermore, insights into friction dynamics at the tool–chip interface are offered, alongside strategies for enhancing SDSS machining. This study revealed the critical impact of cutting speed on cutting forces, with a significant reduction in forces at cutting speeds of 950 and 1350 m/min, but a substantial increase at 1750 m/min, particularly when tool wear is severe. Furthermore, the combination of 950 and 1350 m/min cutting speeds with a 0.2 mm/tooth feed rate led to smoother chip surfaces and decreased friction coefficients, thus enhancing machining efficiency. The presence of stick–slip phenomena at 1750 m/min indicated thermoplastic instability. Optimizing machining parameters for super duplex stainless steel necessitates balancing material removal rate and surface integrity, as the latter plays an important role in ensuring long-term performance and reliability in critical applications.

Oxidation corrosion wear and lubricating mechanisms of WC particles reinforced FeCoCrNiMn high - entropy alloys coatings

The FeCoCrNiMn high-entropy alloy coating reinforced with WC particles was fabricated on 45# steel using plasma surfacing technique. A comprehensive characterization was conducted to investigate the friction and wear behavior of the coating at various temperatures. Results demonstrated that this coating exhibited exceptional wear resistance at room temperature (RT). However, it experienced slight decomposition of WC particles and oxidation corrosion at 400 °C, resulting in a degradation of its wear resistance. The WC decomposition and oxidation corrosion were aggravated at 600 °C, inducing a stronger oxidation corrosion wear effect, and thus led to a more severe wear of this coating. However, these oxidation products provided considerable lubrication effect resulting in a continuous decrease in friction coefficient, from 0.49 at RT to 0.44 at 400 °C, and reached a lower value of 0.16 at 600 °C. The potential oxidation corrosion wear and lubricating mechanisms of this coating at evaluated temperatures were discussed systematically.

Thompson and Troian slip effects on ternary hybrid nanofluid flow over a permeable plate with chemical reaction

This study seeks to elucidate the electromagnetic hydro-thermal aspects of ternary hybrid nanofluid (THNF) (MoS2-SiO2-GO/water) flow over a permeable plate in the presence of Thomson and Troian slip, suction/blowing, and chemical reaction. Through the utilization of similarity transformations, the nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) representing the conservation of mass, momentum, energy, and concentration, are converted into ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The subsequent step involves solving these ODEs utilizing the bvp4c technique in MATLAB. The detailed graphical representations precisely elucidate the action of diverse parameters, such as Hartmann number, electric parameter, velocity slip parameter, Lewis number, critical shear rate, suction/blowing, thermophoresis, and Brownian motion parameter on the velocity, thermal, and concentration profiles. The momentum and temperature distributions respond oppositely to the parameters Hartmann number, electric parameter, and suction/blowing. Also, the absolute values of Nusselt and Sherwood numbers increase with elevated critical shear rate, velocity slip, and suction/blowing parameter but decrease with higher Lewis number and chemical reaction parameter. Moreover, adjusting the velocity slip parameter from 0.2 to 0.6 results in a 24.14% decrease in the skin friction coefficient and a 16.79% increase in the local Nusselt number.

Numerical investigation of electroosmotic driven transport of MHD Casson fluid over an exponential stretching sheet using quartic B-spline method

The stretching surface flow phenomenon plays novel significance in the differential industrial sectors like manufacturing processes, food processing, polymers, petroleum engineering, glass fiber production, metal spinning, and many others. This research focuses on investigating the flow of electroosmotic-driven transport of magnetic Casson fluid over an exponential stretching sheet. The study employs mathematical modeling based on partial differential equations which are further truncated into ordinary system under the implementation of dimensionless variables. The quartic B-spline method is applied for obtaining solutions. Key findings indicate that electroosmotic and Helmholtz–Smoluchowski effects enhance fluid velocity, while magnetic forces reduce velocity. Additionally, an increase in the Hartmann parameter leads to a decrease in the skin friction coefficient.

Titanium carbide (TiC) dispersed surface on titanium based alloy (Ti-13Nb-13Zr) by in-situ laser composite surfacing and its wear performance

Ti-13Nb-13Zr is a promising titanium-based alloy for bioimplant applications due to its low Young’s modulus (80 GPa). However, it undergoes mechanical and mechano-chemical degradation after long-term application in the human body. The present study concerns the development of TiC dispersed surface on Ti-13Nb-13Zr by preplacement of graphite and subsequent melting with a continuous wave (CW) fiber-coupled diode laser using varied power (1000 W to 1400 W) and scan speed (10 mm/s to 20 mm/s). Laser composite surfacing leads to the formation of dispersion of carbide (TiC) in the beta (β) matrix. There is an improvement in microhardness from 257 VHN (for as-received) to 360–519 VHN for laser composite surfaced Ti-13Nb-13Zr and varied with process parameters. There is an increase in nanohardness value from 3.6 GPa (for as-received Ti-13Nb-13Zr) to 5.14–9.224 GPa and increased in Young’s modulus from 100 MPa (for as-received Ti-13Nb-13Zr) to 103.22–120.85 MPa due to laser composite surfacing. A significant improvement in wear resistance (5.8 times) and a decrease in coefficient of friction (COF) (2.8 times) against the WC ball in fretting wear mode was noticed. The wear mechanism has been schematically presented and discussed in details.

Enhanced mechanical properties of polyphenylene sulfide and liquid crystal polymer composites by interfacial bonding capacity of graft‐modified graphene oxide and glass fibers

AbstractThe aim of this study is to broaden the potential applications of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) by incorporating graphene oxide (GO)‐grafted glass fiber (GF) to enhance the mechanical properties of liquid crystal polymer (LCP)/PPS composites. The surface of GF was modified using γ‐Aminopropyltriethoxysilane (KH550), allowing for the grafting of GO. Subsequently, GO‐GF/LCP/PPS composites were prepared through extrusion injection molding. The properties of the composites were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analysis. The findings indicate that the interfacial adhesion between GF and composites is significantly improved with the addition of GO, The mass fractions of GO used were 0.1%, 0.5%, and 0.7%. The incorporation of GO‐grafted GF proves to be an effective approach in enhancing the tensile and flexural strengths of LCP/PPS composites. Additionally, a reduction in wear volume and tribological coefficient is observed compared to composites without GO‐treated GF. Notably, when the GO content is 0.5 wt%, the mechanical properties of the composites show significant improvement, with a 50% increase in impact strength compared to the composite without GO, and a decrease in friction coefficient from 0.28 to 0.22.

Adaptive Advanced Emergency Braking on Combined Road Friction Coefficients

In this study, an Advanced Emergency Braking System (AEBS) is adopted to the combined road friction coefficients by proposing an emergency steering maneuver. AEBS is one of the significant driver assistant systems to avoid rear-end collisions. AEBS supports the drivers with acoustic and optical warnings before applying the full braking maneuver. However, in special cases, such as the sudden decrease of road friction coefficient during braking, a single hard braking maneuver without a proper steering assist may not be sufficient to prevent a rear-end collision. Therefore, AEBS may work with the autonomous emergency steering systems to prevent inevitable rear-end collisions. The originality of this study arises from the necessity of the adaptation of the AEBS to work in cooperation with the autonomous emergency steering systems. A predictive controller was used to support the emergency braking maneuver with an autonomous steering maneuver via observing the yaw rate of the vehicle. The predictive controller was developed in MATLAB software. The implementation of the controller was performed in a non-linear four-wheel vehicle model in the IPG/CarMaker simulation environment. The communication between the simulation environment and MATLAB software was established in the Simulink interface of MATLAB. The results proved that the predictive controller maintained the vehicle lateral stability without causing any type of collisions.

Construction of core–shell‐structured halloysite nanotubes with TiO2 nanoparticles for ultra‐high‐molecular‐weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) nanocomposites with improved wear resistance

AbstractA hybrid of halloysite nanotubes decorated with titanium dioxide nanoparticles (HNTs@TiO2) was synthesized by the sol–gel method and then mixed with ultra‐high molecular polyethylene (UHMWPE) by melt compounding to enhance its wear resistance properties. The incorporation of HNTs@TiO2 increased the crystallinity as well as the hardness of UHMWPE nanocomposites, which benefited less prone to plastic deformation during the friction process. In addition, the UHMWPE/HNTs@TiO2 maintained a high ductility character with a slight decrease in tensile strength compared to pure UHMWPE. With the addition of 3 wt% HNTs@TiO2, the UHMWPE nanocomposite achieved a remarkably low friction coefficient of 0.073 and a reduced wear rate of 6.67 × 10−6 mm3/N·m. These values represented a 32.4% decrease in friction coefficient and a 43.9% decrease in wear rate compared to pure UHMWPE. The improvement in wear resistance was due to the dislodged TiO2 and HNTs had good synergistic rolling effects at the counterface. Furthermore, the wear scan morphology observation revealed that the transferred HNTs@TiO2‐based materials could help to improve the quality of the tribofilms, which alleviated the abrasive wear from the metallic counterpart. This work offers a feasible way to enhance the wear resistance of UHMWPE nanocomposite without sacrificing the high ductility for expanding its engineering applications.Highlights TiO2‐decorated halloysite nanotubes were synthesized by the sol–gel method. The addition of HNTs@TiO2 maintained the high ductility character of UHMWPE. The UHMWPE composite with 3 wt% HNTs@TiO2 had the best wear resistance.

Viscous dissipation and Joule heating effects on the unsteady micropolar fluid flow past a horizontal surface of revolution

This study aims to investigate the Joule effect, thermal radiation, and Coriolis effects in unsteady magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) micropolar flow over a 3-D unstable sheet. A magnetic field is typically applied to the surface; additionally, it is assumed that the fluid is conducting electricity. Other micro-rotations are also considered. The physical issue is resolved with the help of the fundamental equations, and the issue's complexity is reduced with the use of similarity variables. In the present approach, the homotopy analysis method (HAM) is employed. The heat, skin's friction factor, temperature, micro movements, and velocity associated with the emerging parameters and transfer rates are considered. The boundary layer thickness is increased as the parameter of vorticity increases. When the magnitude of the magnetic field increases, the skin friction coefficient decreases. The state variables are approximated up to six decimal places numerically. The numerical values of −f″(0) and −θ′(0) are computed to higher decimal places and compared with the available literature to validate the results. The outcomes obtained are compared with the available literature; the results here are corroborated, and the performance of the HAM is demonstrated.

The mechanical and friction properties of 3D skeleton-reinforced copper matrix composites with Al2O3 decorated graphene oxide as the reinforcements

In this study, copper composite foams reinforced with Al2O3 decorated graphene oxide (AG) were prepared via chemical plating and electrodeposition. Subsequently, copper powders were filled into the pores of the composite foams and then spark plasma sintering (SPS) was employed to fabricate the 3D skeleton-reinforced composites. The tensile strength reached 365 MPa for AG/Cuf®Cu composites, which was 47.1%, 33.7%, and 13% higher compared with the pure copper, Cuf®Cu, and GO/Cuf®Cu composites, respectively. Additionally, improved friction properties with obviously decreased friction coefficient and wear rate were shown in the AG/Cuf®Cu composite. The structure study and strengthening mechanism analysis indicated that the decoration of Al2O3 on the graphene oxide resulted in enhanced interface bonding, higher load transfer efficiency for the mechanical and friction properties improvement.

THE EFFECT OF GRAPHITE ADDITION ON THE FRICTION COEFFICIENT AND WEAR BEHAVIOR OF GLASS FIBER REINFORCED COMPOSITES

The use of fillers in fiber-reinforced epoxy matrix composites to enhance the wear performance of the composite is a widely employed method nowadays. In this study, the effect of incorporating graphite filler into a glass fiber-reinforced composite structure on the tribological properties of the composite was investigated. Composite materials produced using the hand lay-up method with three different levels of graphite filler were compared to unfilled composites in terms of wear behavior under different loads (7 N, 10 N, 15 N) and sliding distances (200 m, 400 m). The influence of load, filler content, and sliding distance on the friction coefficient and wear rate was discussed. When the results are examined, the significant effects of graphite filler on wear volume and friction coefficient are clearly observed. In the composite containing 12% graphite, the wear volume has decreased by almost 96%; this ratio has been around 93% for the composite with 4% graphite filler. As the reinforcement of graphite and force increase, the friction coefficient decreases, whereas with the increase in sliding distance, the friction coefficient declines. Microstructural analysis revealed that the filled composites exhibited less abrasion compared to the unfilled composites, and the surface porosity and craters were shallower.

Frictional evolution process and stability properties of Longmaxi shale under fluid injection

The frictional stability of rocks is fundamental in controlling the instability and activation of faults. Given the strong correlation between seismic events in the Sichuan Basin of China and hydraulic fracturing for shale gas extraction, we conducted a series of velocity-stepping friction experiments with Longmaxi shale from the Changning shale gas extraction block under fluid injection. The experimental results indicate that the frictional process of Longmaxi shale can be divided into four distinct stages and the effective normal stress can demonstrate the influence of injection pressure. Additionally, the phenomenon of a decreasing friction coefficient μ with increasing effective normal stress can be explained by the frictional adhesion theory and a competitive mechanism between the deformation of asperities and microscopic dilatant slip. As the injection pressure increases, the friction state of Longmaxi shale transitions from velocity-strengthening to velocity-weakening, which is beneficial for potential seismic slip. After friction, the fracture surface experiences wear, and the surface morphology of the left and right parts exhibits a symmetrical distribution. With increasing effective normal stress, the morphological evolution of fractures becomes more prominent, which is related to the variation in the effective contact area. Based on the experimental results, we propose that the uneven distribution of fluid pressure on the Longmaxi shale fracture may also contribute to the transformation of frictional stability. When studying the frictional properties of rocks under fluid injection, it is also necessary to focus on the evolution of fluid pressure distribution on the fracture surface during the frictional process.

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating on graphite: Investigating the achievement of maximum wear properties using the PECVD method

Considering the potential for morphological changes and the adjustment of the sp3/sp2 ratio in diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings, and consequently the possibility of adjusting the properties of self-lubricating, hardness, and wear of these coatings, the present study investigates the effect of varying the power applied during the deposition of coatings using plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method. Raman spectroscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), nanoindentation, wear, and wear depth tests were employed for this purpose. The results obtained from the Raman spectroscopy indicated that the percentage of sp3 hybridization, as well as the amount of internal stress, increased with the higher applied power of the coating. AFM results also reveal an increase in surface roughness with increasing applied power, and FESEM results indicate a reduction in the diameter of DLC grains with increasing applied power. Moreover, the alternating increase in hardness and modulus of elasticity, along with a decrease in friction coefficient and wear depth, are among the other effects of increasing the applied power. Therefore, the results of this research suggest an enhancement in the tribological properties of the applied coating at higher powers (up to 250 W).

Influence of cBN on the microstructure and tribology properties of (CoCrNi)94Al3Ti3 medium-entropy alloy coating prepared by high-speed laser cladding: The evolution and strengthening mechanism of cBN

Ceramic particle reinforced medium entropy alloys (MEAs) coatings have attracted considerable attention because of their excellent hardness and wear resistance. In this study, (CoCrNi)94Al3Ti3 MEA coating and (CoCrNi)94Al3Ti3-cBN MEA composite coating were prepared by high-speed laser cladding. The phase constituents, microstructure，hardness and wear mechanisms of the two coatings were investigated using XRD, Raman spectra, SEM, EDS, and TEM. Results show that (CoCrNi)94Al3Ti3 comprises only simple FCC phase because of the high-entropy effect. However, the addition of cBN transforms the phase from FCC to FCC + BCC, but also generates micron-scale TiN and CoCr, as well as nanoscale TiN and CrB. In addition, part of the cBN is converted to hBN with lubricating effect under high energy laser. As for the properties, compared with (CoCrNi)94Al3Ti3 coating, (CoCrNi)94Al3Ti3-cBN coating exhibits increased hardness by 2.2 times, increased wear resistance by 5.6 times, and decreased friction coefficient from 0.58 to 0.47. It is expected that this research will provide research ideas for the preparation coating of friction reduction and wear resistance performances on titanium alloy surfaces.

Microstructure and Properties of Aluminum-Graphene-SiC Matrix Composites after Friction Stir Processing.

Enhancing the mechanical properties of conventional ceramic particles-reinforced aluminum (Al 1060) metal matrix composites (AMCs) with lower detrimental phases is difficult. In this research work, AMCs are reinforced with graphene nanosheet (GNS) and hybrid reinforcement (GNS combined with 20% SiC, synthesized by shift-speed ball milling (SSBM), and further fabricated by two-pass friction stir processing (FSP). The effect of GNS content and the addition of SiC on the microstructure and mechanical properties of AMCs are studied. The microstructure, elemental, and phase composition of the developed composite are examined using SEM, EDS, and XRD techniques, respectively. Mechanical properties such as hardness, wear, and tensile strength are analyzed. The experimental results show that the GNS and the SiC are fairly distributed in the Al matrix via SSBM, which is beneficial for the mechanical properties of the composites. The maximum tensile strength of the composites is approximately 171.3 MPa in AMCs reinforced by hybrid reinforcements. The tensile strength of the GNS/Al composites increases when the GNS content increases from 0 to 1%, but then reduces with the further increase in GNS content. The hardness increases by 2.3%, 24.9%, 28.9%, and 41.8% when the Al 1060 is reinforced with 0.5, 1, 2% GNS, and a hybrid of SiC and GNS, respectively. The SiC provides further enhancement of the hardness of AMCs reinforced by GNS. The coefficient of friction decreases by about 7%, 13%, and 17% with the reinforcement of 0.5, 1, and 2% GNS, respectively. Hybrid reinforcement has the lowest friction coefficient (0.41). The decreasing friction coefficient contributes to the self-lubrication of GNSs, the reduction in the contact area with the substrate, and the load-bearing ability of ceramic particles. According to this study, the strengthening mechanisms of the composites may be due to thermal mismatch, grain refinement, and Orowan looping. In summary, such hybrid reinforcements effectively improve the mechanical and tribological properties of the composites.

Polystyrene microcapsules containing linseed oil and SiC nanoparticles as a lubricant additive for boosting the self-healing and self-lubricating efficiency of epoxy coatings

Friction coefficients and specific wear rates of a multifunctional smart nanocomposite epoxy coating with embedded linseed oil-filled microcapsules and SiC nanoparticles were determined using six coatings synthesized with 15 wt% microcapsules and 1, 2, 3, and 4 wt% of SiC nanoparticles. In rotational pin-on-disk testing, all samples containing microcapsules and SiC nanoparticles exhibited reduced friction coefficients. The sample containing 3 wt% SiC nanoparticles showed the highest decrease in coefficient of friction by 31.79% and a specific wear rate by 59.04% compared with the neat epoxy sample. The results are discussed concerning lubricating rollers, polishing operations of SiC nanoparticles, a solid/liquid lubricant film, and electron microscopy (FESEM/EDX) studies.

Investigating the stick-slip vibration behavior of a locomotive with adhesion control in a curve

In order to explain the wheel-rail stick-slip vibration phenomenon of alocomotive in a curve, a co-simulation dynamic model taking into account adhesion control was established to reproduce the locomotive wheel-rail curve stick-slip vibration behavior, and the effect of parameters such as creep threshold, descent slope, rail surface condition and track curve radius on the stick-slip vibration behavior was measured by the traction force and the overall dispersion of adhesion coefficient. The results illustrate that the wheel-rail curve stick-slip vibration is caused by the dynamic traction force fluctuation under the adhesion control, and the increase of creep threshold will lead to the decrease of tractive force fluctuation amplitude and the decrease of stick-slip vibration intensity, which will increase the adhesion utilization rate, However, the increase of descent slope, the decrease of track curve radius and wheel-rail friction coefficient have the opposite effect on stick-slip vibration behavior. This phenomenon can be eliminated by improving the rail surface condition, expanding the track curve radius and lowering the locomotive traction force.

Synergetic effect of oleophilic textured surfaces and MoS2 on the tribological properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloy under dry and lubricated sliding conditions

Abstract In the present work, surface modification of Ti-6Al-4V alloy was carried out using Laser surface texturing (LST). The investigation aims to explore the synergetic impact of LST and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), as a solid lubricant, on the tribological properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Three types of LST textures (Circular, triangular, and square textures) were created on the Ti6Al4V alloy. Subsequently, tribological tests were conducted on a universal tribometer (ball-on-disc), at a load of 20 N with a frequency of 15 Hz. The worn surface was analyzed using various methods, including optical microscopy, 3D-profilometer, FESEM, EDAX analysis, and Raman spectroscopy. The study compared the coefficient of friction (COF) and wear behavior of un-textured surfaces (UTS) with those of textured surfaces (TS) under both dry sliding conditions (DSC) and lubricated sliding conditions (LSC). The results demonstrated a significant reduction in the COF and wear coefficients on the TS. Specifically, the circular texture exhibited significant results with a 10.30%, 10.42%, and 28.80% decrease in COF and a remarkable reduction of 39.22%, 47.51%, and 77.90% in wear coefficients compared to the UTS tested under DSC and LSC (using PAO-4 and PAO-4 + 1% wt MoS2). Severe abrasion, adhesion, and delamination as the primary wear mechanisms were observed on the UTS and TS under DSC, while the LSC was characterized by mild adhesive and delamination wear on the UTS and TS. The carbon layer formation and concentration of Mo and S particles resulted in lower friction and wear coefficients for the UTS, and TS under LSC (PAO-4 + 1% wt MoS2). The analysis indicated that the use of LST and solid lubricant nanoparticles on a Ti-6Al-4V alloy would result in improved service life and better endurance in cutting tools and tribo-mating parts.

Numerical Analysis on Stagnation Point Flow of Micropolar Nanofluid with Thermal Radiations over an Exponentially Stretching Surface

Several industrial developments such as polymer extrusion in metal spinning and continuous metal casting include energy transmission and flow over a stretchy surface. In this paper, the stagnation point flow of micropolar nanofluid over a slanted surface is presenting also considering the influence of thermal radiations. Buongiorno’s nanoliquid model is deployed to recover the thermophoretic effects. By using similarity transformations, the governing boundary layer equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations. The Keller-box approach is used to solve transformed equations numerically. The numerical outcomes are presented in tabular and graphical form. A comparison of the outcomes attained with previously published results is done after providing the entire formulation of the Keller-Box approach for the flow problem under consideration. It has been found that the reduced sherwood number grows for increasing values of radiation parameter while, reduced Nusselt number and skin friction coefficient decreases. Furthermore, the skin-friction coefficient increases as the inclination factor increases, but Nusselt and Sherwood's numbers decline.
