  2. Archard equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archard_equation

    The Archard wear equation is a simple model used to describe sliding wear and is based on the theory of asperity contact. The Archard equation was developed much later than Reye's hypothesis [] (sometimes also known as energy dissipative hypothesis), though both came to the same physical conclusions, that the volume of the removed debris due to wear is proportional to the work done by friction ...

  3. Wear coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wear_coefficient

    Traditionally, the wear of materials has been characterized by weight loss and wear rate. However, studies have found that wear coefficient is more suitable. The reason being that it takes the wear rate, the applied load, and the hardness of the wear pin into account. Although, measurement variations by an order of 10-1 have been observed, the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abrasion_(mechanical)

    The Archard equation is a simple model used to describe sliding wear and is based on the theory of asperity contact. [1] = where: Q is the total volume of wear debris produced K is the wear coefficient W is the total normal load L is the sliding distance H is the hardness of the softest contacting surfaces

  5. Wear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wear

    Types of wear are identified by relative motion, the nature of disturbance at the worn surface or "mechanism", and whether it effects a self regenerative or base layer. [6] Wear mechanisms are the physical disturbance. For example, the mechanism of adhesive wear is adhesion. Wear mechanisms and/or sub-mechanisms frequently overlap and occur in ...

  6. Physical coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_coefficient

    Partition coefficient (K D) - The ratio of concentrations of a compound in two phases of a mixture of two immiscible solvents at equilibrium. Hall coefficient (electrical physics) - Relates a magnetic field applied to an element to the voltage created, the amount of current and the element thickness. It is a characteristic of the material from ...

  7. List of equations in classical mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_equations_in...

    Classical mechanics is the branch of physics used to describe the motion of macroscopic objects. [1] It is the most familiar of the theories of physics. The concepts it covers, such as mass, acceleration, and force, are commonly used and known. [2]

  8. Physics of failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics_of_failure

    where ε f is a fatigue ductility coefficient, c is a time and temperature dependent constant, F is an empirical constant, L D is the distance from the neutral point, α is the coefficient of thermal expansion, ΔT is the change in temperature, and h is solder joint thickness. Steinberg: [16] Predicts time to failure of solder joints exposed to ...

  9. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    A starting point for solving contact problems is to understand the effect of a "point-load" applied to an isotropic, homogeneous, and linear elastic half-plane, shown in the figure to the right. The problem may be either plane stress or plane strain. This is a boundary value problem of linear elasticity subject to the traction boundary conditions:
