Abstract
During high-temperature ball-on-disc tests of aluminium against steel, hot aluminium deforms and wear track evolves. The individual contributions of plowing and shearing to the apparent friction and the contact pressure are unknown. The aim of the research was to develop a model capable of determining these parameters. It was found that during high-temperature ball-on-disc tests, the plowing friction accounted for only about 1% of the apparent friction, although the plowing friction coefficient increased with increasing wear lap, while the shear friction played a dominant role in determining the apparent friction measured. The mean contact pressure decreased significantly as the test proceeded.
