摘要

In this study, a three-body abrasive wear behavior of mild steel was investigated. A dry sand Steel wheel (DSSW) test apparatus was used in these experiments to conduct tribological testing considering different sliding distances and applied loads under dry contact conditions. Scanning electron microscopy was used to examine the damage on the worn surface of the mild steel. The results revealed that the sand used in the experiments caused cracking and pitting on the worn surfaces. Increasing the applied load increases the volume loss of the materials due to the high stress subjected to the surface. In addition, a sliding mechanism was observed with the high applied load since there is a high abrasive nature on the surface at the high applied load. With the low applied load, the main motion mechanism involved rolling the particle at the interface, resulting in less damage on the surface compared to the high applied load. The increase in the sliding distance leads to a consistent rise in material removal.
