To move the surface sideway, it must overcome shear strength of junctions with
force Fa.
= Fa W = s H.
In other words shear strength(s) and hardness(H) of soft material decides the value
of . This means whatever properties of the other harder pairing material, would
not change.
Theory is unable to estimate different for steel on indium and steel on lead alloy.
Theory related to deformation needs to be explored.
Fig. 2.12: Friction coefficients for various material pairs.
Generally h << R, therefore d 0.1. This means total , should not exceed 0.3.
Summary of theories related to adhesion and ploughing effects.
Three frictional theories were discussed :
In first expression it is shown that friction depends on the lowest shear strength of
the contact tribo-pair. Reducing shear strength and increasing the hardness reduces
the coefficient of friction.
