Abstract
To explore the relationship between grinding and abrasive wear, a range of differing experiments has been performed. These include simple wear tests, dynamometer measurements of grinding forces, simple scratch tests with both idealized indentors and abrasive grits, and the microscopic examination of abrasive wheels and worn surfaces of steel. It is suggested that grinding and abrasive wear should be regarded as essentially similar mechanisms. The anomalies which occur with heat-treated steels, of a range of hardness, in both grinding and abrasive wear may be attributable to the influence of ploughing which affects the efficiency of the action of individual grits.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
