Development of the Computer Controlled Seizure Testing Methodology
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 February 2011
Abstract
In this paper the computer controlled methodology and the testing apparatus were developed and designed to study seizure as a destructive wear. The seizure testing methodology is based on obtaining the power losses information in testing zone during any time of testing period. These losses are dueto the different friction coefficient in the area of load and sliding zone.They can be automatically recorded and recomputed into the friction force and\or friction coefficient. The friction force and\or friction coefficient - sliding distance relationship can be plotted and the starting point of mass transfer which results in increasing the friction coefficient can be detected. The test results are presented using developed methodology as well as traditional optical microscope and surfanalyzer.
