Experimental Study of Third Body Entrapment and Its Effect on Friction and Wear Weiyi Wang (Michelle) Research Assistant
Outline • Personal background • Motivation • Objectives • Background of third body effects • Experiments • Test rig • Future work Personal Background • Joined METL – Aug. 2013 • B.E. Department of Precision Instruments and Mechanology from Tsinghua University, Beijing, China – Jul. 2013
Motivation • Third body was introduced by Godet in the 70’s to characterize the discontinuous and heterogeneous interface that separates two bodies in contact.- M. Renouf, 2011 • Debris loosely trapped respond kinetically to situations; transportation of debris • Mechanical functions of third bodies – protect contact surfaces 1. load carrying; 2. velocity accommodation; 3. solid lubrication, decrease wear A.

Objectives • Develop an wear model to predict the effects of third body on wear • Analyze the effect of different sizes and orientations of surface textures (grooves) on wear • Study the effects of load and sliding velocity on third body entrapment • Extend Modeling approach developed by Leonard et al. • Simulate the experimentally observed effects in a numerical / FE model

Future Work • Extend the experiments to more materials • Evaluate the effect of different material properties like yield strength, hardness etc. on wear influenced by third bodies • Numerical modeling of the third body effect for different contact configurations
