THE ASSESSMENT OF TRIBOLOGICAL PROPERTIES IN ROLLING-SLIDING CONTACT IN RECIPROCATING MOTION ON A DEVICE FOR SURFACE WEAR TESTING

Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2017, Vol 273, Issue 3

Abstract

The paper presents wear tests of a sample made of rail steel in a reciprocating motion on an experimental apparatus for surface wear testing. Professional machines for wear tests of rolling-sliding contact, whose main task is to simulate the multiple passage of rolling stock, are large in size and have a significant financial burden on the implementation of scientific projects. The mobile device used for surface wear testing in reciprocating motion has a number of advantages over existing research units with high mass and high financial costs. The proposed device makes it possible to significantly reflect the actual conditions of co-ordination of a rollingsliding contact, for example, the wheel-rail assembly, while maintaining a reasonable financial outlay for the entire project. The results obtained are highly consistent with those obtained under real conditions, which allows us to put forward far-reaching assumptions about the durability of the contact in question and its wear resistance.<br/><br/>
