Influence of texturing parameters and contact conditions on tribological behaviour of laser textured surfaces
2011
Introducing specific textures on a tribological surface can contribute to friction reduction in sliding contacts. Well defined micro-dimples can act as lubricant reservoirs capable of feeding lubricant directly into the contact and initiating micro elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication, as well as traps for wear debris. A lot of experimental work has been already carried out, but it is mostly based on trial and error approach when defining optimum textures for a given application.
