Surface Modification And Mechanisms: Friction, Stress, And Reaction Engineering

E-Book Overview

Leading readers through an extensive compilation of surface modification reactions and processes for specific tribological results, this reference compiles detailed studies on various residual stresses, reaction processes and mechanisms, heat treatment methods, plasma-based techniques, and more, for a solid understanding of surface structural changes that occur during various engineering procedures. This unique book explores topics previously ignored in other texts on surface engineering and tribology, offers guidelines for the consideration and design of wear life and frictional performance, and sections on laser impingement and nanometer scale surface modification.

Preface There are many texts and handbooks available describing tribological processes, effects of additives on lubrication, tribochemistry, surface engineering, and heat treating methodologies involved in surface modification. However, few of these texts provide a thorough integration of surface modification reactions and processes to achieve a tribological result and none provides a physical tribochemical (mechanistic) understanding of surface structural changes that occur under various circumstances. This book was written to address these deficiencies and provide a critically important text for this vitally important technology field. The book was written in four parts: Part Part Part Part One Residual Stresses Two Reaction Processes and Mechanisms Three Surface Modification by Heat Treatment and Plasma-Based Methods Four Modeling, Simulation, and Design An often overlooked aspect of tribological processes is the role of residual stresses. Part One discusses the formation of temperature fields created as a result of friction during heat treatment, welding and cutting, and their role in residual stress formation,
