The Relationship between Cyclic Multi-Scale Self-Organized Processes and Wear-Induced Surface Phenomena under Severe Tribological Conditions Associated with Buildup Edge Formation

This paper presents experimental investigations of various interrelated multi-scale cyclic and temporal processes that occur on the frictional surface under severe tribological conditions during cutting with buildup edge formation. The results of the finite element modeling of the stress/temperature profiles on the friction surface are laid out. This study was performed on a multilayer coating with the top alumina ceramic layer deposited by CVD …
