The effect of coating architecture and defects on the corrosion behaviour of a PVD multilayer Inconel 625/Cr coating (2017)
Journal Article
Daure, J., Voisey, K., Shipway, P., & Stewart, D. (2017). The effect of coating architecture and defects on the corrosion behaviour of a PVD multilayer Inconel 625/Cr coating. Surface and Coatings Technology, 324, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.surfcoat.2017.06.009

This paper investigates the effect of substrate surface finish and deposition conditions of PVD multilayer Inconel 625/Cr coatings on their ability to act as a corrosion-barrier. The corrosion-barrier performance of the coatings was characterized by...

The role of temperature and frequency on fretting wear of a like-on-like stainless steel contact (2017)
Journal Article
Jin, X., Shipway, P., & Sun, W. (2017). The role of temperature and frequency on fretting wear of a like-on-like stainless steel contact. Tribology Letters, 65, Article 77. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11249-017-0858-0

The influences of environmental temperature and fretting frequency on the mechanisms and rates of wear in a like-on-like 304 stainless steel contact were examined, and mainly attributed to changes in the mechanical response of the bulk material and t...

Effect of test conditions on the temperature at which a protective debris bed is formed in fretting of a high strength steel (2017)
Journal Article
Hayes, E., & Shipway, P. (2017). Effect of test conditions on the temperature at which a protective debris bed is formed in fretting of a high strength steel. Wear, 376-377(B), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wear.2017.01.057

It is well known that mechanisms and rates of fretting wear of many metals are dependent upon the temperature of the environment; specifically, it is known that a transition temperature exists, above which the debris forms a protective bed in the con...

HVOF and laser cladded Fe-Cr-B coating in simulated biomass combustion: microstructure and fireside corrosion (2017)
Journal Article
Reddy, L., Shipway, P., Davis, C., & Hussain, T. (in press). HVOF and laser cladded Fe-Cr-B coating in simulated biomass combustion: microstructure and fireside corrosion. Oxidation of Metals, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11085-017-9774-9

Biomass is often considered as a low carbon alternative to fossil fuels in the power industry. However the heat exchangers in biomass plants can suffer from chloride based aggressive fireside corrosion. A commercially available amorphous Fe-Cr-B allo...

Evolution of plasticity-based wear damage in gross sliding fretting of a Ti-6Al-4V non-conforming contact (2017)
Journal Article
Mohd Tobi, A., Sun, W., & Shipway, P. (in press). Evolution of plasticity-based wear damage in gross sliding fretting of a Ti-6Al-4V non-conforming contact. Tribology International, 113, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.triboint.2017.01.010

This paper examines the evidence for a plasticity based wear mechanism in the fretting wear of Ti-6Al-4V. Driven by near-surface plastic strain accumulation, the generation of wear debris evolves from coarse metallic debris towards loose fine oxide d...
