Adhesion
Adhesion is the tendency of dissimilar particles or surfaces to cling to one another.
Archard equation
The Archard wear equation is a simple model used to describe sliding wear and is based on the theory of asperity contact. Wear and Archard equation are tribology.
Asperity (materials science)
In materials science, asperity, defined as "unevenness of surface, roughness, ruggedness" (from the Latin asper—"rough"), has implications (for example) in physics and seismology. Wear and asperity (materials science) are tribology.
See Wear and Asperity (materials science)
ASTM International
ASTM International, formerly known as American Society for Testing and Materials, is a standards organization that develops and publishes voluntary consensus technical international standards for a wide range of materials, products, systems and services.
See Wear and ASTM International
Attrition test
An attrition test is a test carried out to measure the resistance of a granular material to wear. Wear and attrition test are tribology.
Backlash (engineering)
In mechanical engineering, backlash, sometimes called lash, play, or slop, is a clearance or lost motion in a mechanism caused by gaps between the parts.
See Wear and Backlash (engineering)
Chemistry
Chemistry is the scientific study of the properties and behavior of matter.
Corrosion
Corrosion is a natural process that converts a refined metal into a more chemically stable oxide. Wear and Corrosion are materials degradation.
Creep (deformation)
In materials science, creep (sometimes called cold flow) is the tendency of a solid material to undergo slow deformation while subject to persistent mechanical stresses. Wear and creep (deformation) are materials degradation.
See Wear and Creep (deformation)
Erosion
Erosion is the action of surface processes (such as water flow or wind) that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust and then transports it to another location where it is deposited.
See Wear and Erosion
Fatigue (material)
In materials science, fatigue is the initiation and propagation of cracks in a material due to cyclic loading. Wear and fatigue (material) are materials degradation.
See Wear and Fatigue (material)
Ferrography
Ferrography is a method of oil analysis used to inspect the severity and mechanisms of wear in machinery.
Fracture mechanics
Fracture mechanics is the field of mechanics concerned with the study of the propagation of cracks in materials. Wear and Fracture mechanics are materials degradation.
See Wear and Fracture mechanics
Friction
Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other. Wear and Friction are tribology.
Galling
Galling is a form of wear caused by adhesion between sliding surfaces. Wear and Galling are materials degradation and tribology.
See Wear and Galling
Lubricant
A lubricant (sometimes shortened to lube) is a substance that helps to reduce friction between surfaces in mutual contact, which ultimately reduces the heat generated when the surfaces move. Wear and lubricant are tribology.
Lubrication
Lubrication is the process or technique of using a lubricant to reduce friction and wear and tear in a contact between two surfaces. Wear and Lubrication are tribology.
Machine element
Machine element or hardware refers to an elementary component of a machine.
A metal is a material that, when polished or fractured, shows a lustrous appearance, and conducts electricity and heat relatively well.
See Wear and Metal
Mianus River Bridge
The Mianus River Bridge is a span that carries Interstate 95 (Connecticut Turnpike) over the Mianus River, between Cos Cob and Riverside, Connecticut.
See Wear and Mianus River Bridge
Microscopy
Microscopy is the technical field of using microscopes to view objects and areas of objects that cannot be seen with the naked eye (objects that are not within the resolution range of the normal eye).
Motion
In physics, motion is when an object changes its position with respect to a reference point in a given time.
See Wear and Motion
Nanometre
molecular scale. The nanometre (international spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures; SI symbol: nm), or nanometer (American spelling), is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to one billionth (short scale) of a meter (0.000000001 m) and to 1000 picometres.
Redox
Redox (reduction–oxidation or oxidation–reduction) is a type of chemical reaction in which the oxidation states of the reactants change.
See Wear and Redox
Rolling
Rolling is a type of motion that combines rotation (commonly, of an axially symmetric object) and translation of that object with respect to a surface (either one or the other moves), such that, if ideal conditions exist, the two are in contact with each other without sliding.
See Wear and Rolling
Self-healing material
Self-healing materials are artificial or synthetically created substances that have the built-in ability to automatically repair damages to themselves without any external diagnosis of the problem or human intervention.
See Wear and Self-healing material
Silver Bridge
The Silver Bridge was an eyebar-chain suspension bridge built in 1928 which carried U.S. Route 35 over the Ohio River, connecting Point Pleasant, West Virginia, and Gallipolis, Ohio.
Sliding (motion)
Sliding is a type of motion between two surfaces in contact.
Solid
Solid is one of the four fundamental states of matter along with liquid, gas, and plasma.
See Wear and Solid
Spall
Spall are fragments of a material that are broken off a larger solid body. Wear and Spall are materials degradation.
See Wear and Spall
Surface engineering
Surface engineering is the sub-discipline of materials science which deals with the surface of solid matter.
See Wear and Surface engineering
Surface roughness
Surface roughness can be regarded as the quality of a surface of not being smooth and it is hence linked to human (haptic) perception of the surface texture. From a mathematical perspective it is related to the spatial variability structure of surfaces, and inherently it is a multiscale property. It has different interpretations and definitions depending on the disciplines considered. Wear and surface roughness are tribology.
See Wear and Surface roughness
Switch
In electrical engineering, a switch is an electrical component that can disconnect or connect the conducting path in an electrical circuit, interrupting the electric current or diverting it from one conductor to another.
See Wear and Switch
Temperature
Temperature is a physical quantity that quantitatively expresses the attribute of hotness or coldness.
Tribocorrosion
Tribocorrosion is a material degradation process due to the combined effect of corrosion and wear. Wear and Tribocorrosion are tribology.
Tribofilm
Tribofilms (boundary lubricant films, boundary lubricating films, tribo-boundary films or boundary films) are films that form on tribologically stressed surfaces. Wear and Tribofilm are tribology.
Tribology
Tribology is the science and engineering of understanding friction, lubrication and wear phenomena for interacting surfaces in relative motion. Wear and Tribology are materials degradation.
Tribosystem
A tribosystem is a tribological system that consists of at least two contacting bodies and any environmental factor that affects their interaction. Wear and tribosystem are tribology.
Vincent van Gogh
Vincent Willem van Gogh (30 March 185329 July 1890) was a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter who is among the most famous and influential figures in the history of Western art.
Wear
Wear is the damaging, gradual removal or deformation of material at solid surfaces. Wear and Wear are materials degradation and tribology.
