Abstract: In this paper the finite element simulation approach has been employed for the Aluminium Alloy AA7075 material was coated with WS2/Cu. The study of dry sliding wear behavior was carried out with the pin-on-disc equipment. The increases the hardness of the Aluminium Alloy, resulting in improved wear resistance. The Archard wear model and finite element software ANSYS WORKBENCH-2021 was used to determine the wear volume loss. The specific wear rate or dimensional wear coefficient is the most significant factor in the wear volume calculation, and it varies with material and operating parameters. The study shows that frictional coefficient varies with material properties (hardness) at similar operating conditions. Finally, the results reveal that there is a good agreement that exists between the simulated (FE) values and those of the experimental values.
