Journal Article
Shipway, P. (in press). The contact size dependence of wear rate in fretting: understanding and rationalising data from tests with flat-on-flat, cylinder-on-flat and sphere-on-flat contact configurations. Wear,

In fretting contacts between metals such as steels, wear normally takes place by the formation of an oxide debris in the contact and its subsequent expulsion. There are three stages to this process: (i) the transport of oxygen into the closed contact...
