Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAnalysis of Steel Track Undercarriage Wear Based on Geographic LocationFrederick A. Rich, Christopher KluseUndercarriage management is a critical concern for heavy equipment owners that often can account for over half of the operating cost of a piece of machinery. Understanding the most economical time to stop a machine for undercarriage maintenance is critical in the management of the undercarriage system and for optimizing profitability for the equipment owner. There has been much laboratory … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2018 · 7,575 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Varying Loads on Wear Behaviour of Constructional SteelAlo Francis Ireti, Emordi Ngozi, Kunle Michael Oluwasegun et al.This study examined the effect of varying loads on wear behaviour of Ife constructional steel. The wear measurements were determined under normal ranging from 5 to 25 N at interval of 5 N incremental. The morphology of the corroded samples were carried out using optical microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). When a load of 5 N was used, the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2018 · 7,574 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSurface Modification of Mild Steel Using Tungsten Inert Gas Torch Surface CladdingS. Dyuti, S. Mridha, S. K. ShahaProblem statement: There is an increasing demand for claddings which possess an optimized combination of different functional properties such as high hardness, high resistance to wear and oxidation. In this respect, hard TiAlN cladding has gained much attention. These claddings can be suitable replacements for the conventional ceramic coatings applied in many components of chemical plants and automotive industries to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,144 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIterative Feedforward Control for Bearing-Free Multibody SystemsNicola Y. Bailey, Christopher Lusty, Patrick S. KeoghAutomated machinery and robotics are commonly conventional multibody systems containing bearing components, which exhibit uncertain, discontinuous and complex tribological characteristics. These generate wear and fundamentally limit the precision of small scale motion due to the tribological effects being difficult to compensate for using model-based active control. However, they can be eliminated through the replacement of traditional bearing joints with flexure … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 6 Dec 2021 · 6,477 accessesView PDF Cite
