  2. Fretting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fretting

    A connector design that contacts all 4-sides of a square pin instead of just one or 1 or 2 can delay the inevitable fretting some amount. Keeping contacts clean and lubricated also offers some longevity. Contact fretting can change the impedance of a B2B connector from milliohms to ohms in just minutes when vibration is present. The relatively ...

  3. False brinelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_brinelling

    False brinelling is a bearing damage caused by fretting, with or without corrosion, [1] that causes imprints that look similar to brinelling, but are caused by a different mechanism. False brinelling may occur in bearings which act under small oscillations [ 2 ] or vibrations.

  4. Spall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spall

    A kinetic energy penetrator, if it can defeat the armour, generally causes spalling within the target as well, which helps to destroy or disable the vehicle and its crew. [1] An early example of anti-tank weapon intentionally designed to cause spallation instead of penetration is the wz. 35 anti-tank rifle.

  5. Flat spot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_spot

    A severe flat spot on a rail wheel. A flat spot, or wheel flat, also called spalling or shelling, is a fault in railroad wheel shape. A flat spot occurs when a rail vehicle's wheelset stops rotating while the train is still in motion, causing part of the wheel to ablate against the hard steel of the rails.

  6. Micro pitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro_pitting

    In a normal bearing the surfaces are separated by a layer of oil, this is known as elastohydrodynamic (EHD) lubrication.If the thickness of the EHD film is of the same order of magnitude as the surface roughness, the surface topography is able to interact and cause micro pitting.

  7. Spallation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spallation

    Laser induced spallation is a recent experimental technique developed to understand the adhesion of thin films with substrates.A high energy pulsed laser (typically Nd:YAG) is used to create a compressive stress pulse in the substrate wherein it propagates and reflects as a tensile wave at the free boundary.

  8. Fifth column - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_column

    In Foyle's War, series 2 episode 3, "War Games", one line reads: "It's the Second salvage collection I've missed, they've got me down as a fifth columnist." [ citation needed ] In Fallout: London , a total conversion mod for the 2015 Bethesda Softworks action role-playing game Fallout 4 , there is a populist faction known as the "5th Column ...
