A parameter-free mechanistic model of the adhesive wear process of rough surfaces in sliding contact

Tobias Brink, Lucas Frérot, Jean-François Molinari

In order to develop predictive wear laws, relevant material parameters and their influence on the wear rate need to be identified. Despite decades of research, there is no agreemen…

The role of interfacial adhesion on minimum wear particle size and roughness evolution

Enrico Milanese, Tobias Brink, Ramin Aghababaei +1

Adhesion between two bodies is a key parameter in wear processes. At the macroscale, strong adhesive bonds are known to lead to high wear rates, as observed in clean metal-on-metal…

Adhesive wear and interaction of tangentially loaded micro-contacts

Son Pham-Ba, Tobias Brink, Jean-François Molinari

Current engineering wear models are often based on empirical parameters rather than built upon physical considerations. Here, we look for a physical description of adhesive wear at…

Adhesive wear mechanisms in the presence of weak interfaces: Insights from an amorphous model system

Tobias Brink, Jean-François Molinari

Engineering wear models are generally empirical and lack connections to the physical processes of debris generation at the nanoscale to microscale. Here, we thus analyze wear parti…

From metallic glasses to nanocrystals: Molecular dynamics simulations on the crossover from glass-like to grain-boundary-mediated deformation behaviour

Tobias Brink, Karsten Albe

Nanocrystalline metals contain a large fraction of high-energy grain boundaries, which may be considered as glassy phases. Consequently, with decreasing grain size, a crossover in…

Solid-state amorphization of Cu nanolayers embedded in a Cu64Zr36 glass

Tobias Brink, Daniel Şopu, Karsten Albe

Solid-state amorphization of crystalline copper nanolayers embedded in a Cu64Zr36 metallic glass is studied by molecular dynamics simulations for different orientations of the crys…
