The effect of frequency on both the debris and the development of the tribologically transformed structure during fretting wear of a high strength steel (2019)
Journal Article

It is well established that damage to the first bodies in fretting wear gives rise to a hard and brittle tribologically transformed structure (TTS) which can influence both wear and fatigue. While the existence and significance of TTS has been establ...

Bearing surfaces in the primary circuit of pressurized water reactors (PWR) are prone to damage due to aggressive chemical and tribological conditions under which they operate, and a wide range of materials have been examined in this regard. One of t... Read More about Sliding wear of a self-mated thermally sprayed chromium oxide coating in a simulated PWR water environment.

Modelling the effectiveness of oil lubrication in reducing both friction and wear in a fretting contact (2019)
Journal Article

Lubrication is often employed in fretting contacts to reduce wear and stresses associated with high friction. Owing to the very small displacements associated with fretting, penetration of lubricating oils into the contact may not be effective. The e...
