Control of Self-Organized Criticality through Adaptive Behavior of Nano-Structured Thin Film Coatings

In this paper, we will develop a strategy for controlling the self-organized critical process using the example of extreme tribological conditions caused by intensive build-up edge (BUE) formation that take place during machining of hard-to-cut austentic superduplex stainless steel SDSS UNS32750. From a tribological viewpoint, machining of this material involves intensive seizure and build-up edge formation at the tool/chip interface, which can …
