Evolution of plasticity-based wear damage in gross sliding fretting of a Ti-6Al-4V non-conforming contact

This paper examines the evidence for a plasticity based wear mechanism in the fretting wear of Ti-6Al-4V. Driven by near-surface plastic strain accumulation, the generation of wear debris evolves from coarse metallic debris towards loose fine oxide debris generating W-shape wear scar. The overall we...
