What is wear
Types of wear
Adhesive wear
Abrasive wear
Surface fatigue
Erosive wear
It is related to surface interactions and more specifically the removal of material from
a surface as a result of mechanical action.

Adhesive wear
Adhesive Wear
Adhesive wear occurs when two
smooth bodies are slid over each
other,
or
pressed in to another and fragment
are pulled off one surface and
adhere to the another and
fragment are pulled off one surface
and adhere to the other ,due to
the strong adhesive force between
atoms.
Adhesive Wear
Adhesive Wear
Abrasive wear
Abrasive wear
Abrasive wear is a primary wear mechanism.
Slurry erosion
Erosion/Corrosion
Liquid impingement erosion and
Liquid impingement erosion and
cavitations
cavitationserosion
erosion
liquid impingement erosion occurs when
small drops of liquid are striking on the
surface of a solid at high speed (1000 m/s)
and very high pressures are experienced,
exceeding the yield strength of most
materials
Solid particle erosion
Ductile
Brittle
Whether “brittle” or “ductile”
behavior is obtained for a particular
material may depend on
• Particle size
• Particle shape
• Impact speed
• Temperature
Small size: impact on defect
free area: plastic deformation
