dc.description.abstract | Reduced product lifetimes and increased energy use are two of the results of wear and friction. Testing the wear and friction behavior of components and materials is challenging. One common laboratory tool used to characterize wear is the pin-on-disk tribometer (a friction and wear tester) which places a pin (or fixed ball) on a rotating plate. A variation of this device is a linear reciprocating tribometer. The goal of this project is to develop a dual-mode tribometer that incorporates the ability to switch from one test mode to another, as well as measuring additional properties. | en_US |
