Coatings
Tribology
• There will be a separate lecture on coatings, their properties and
Lecture 8 – Wear Modeling of advantages etc

Coating • In this lecture, we will only focus on wear modeling of coatings

Coating
Wear • Now the dimensions of radii of curvature after introducing the
Modeling coating of thickness t all around

= +

Let us suppose an ellipsoid has been coated all around by a thickness t. = +

The radii of curvature are as usual Ra, Rb, Rc from which a component
has been formed
