Coefficient of friction and damage to contact area during the early stages of fretting 2: steel, iron, iron oxide, and glass combinations

Description: Report presenting experiments to study the start of fretting and cause of damage during the early stages of fretting of steel-steel combinations at a frequency 5 cycles per minute, an amplitude of 0.006 inch, a load of 150 grams, in air with relative humidity of less than 10 percent. Pure iron, glass, and iron oxide powder compacts were used in supplementary experiments.

Trends of Rolling-Contact Bearings as Applied to Aircraft Gas-Turbine Engines

Description: Note presenting a review of the present and future trends of rolling-contact bearings for aircraft gas-turbine engines, which indicates that while rolling-contact bearings are satisfactory for present production engines, new bearings for future, higher output aircraft engines require more development. These new engines have operating conditions resulting in two primary problems: cage materials and endurance of materials for raceways and rolling elements.

Statistical Study of Overstressing in Steel

Description: Note presenting a study of the effect of overstressing on the fatigue properties of SAE 4340 steel. The effect of microstructure on the susceptibility to reduction in fatigue life due to cycles of overstress was investigated. Results regarding the effect of microstructure on overstressing damage, influence of criterion of failure on fatigue life, and effect of overstressing on endurance-limit statistics are provided.
