Effect of Textured Surface on Sliding Friction Investigated Using Molecular Dynamic Simulation

Year: 2013

Type: article

Abstract: Molecular dynamic simulation for Fe sliding on Fe substrate with textured surface is investigated in this work. The textured surfaces on sliding are discussed to elucidate the physics of friction at the small scale. The modified embedded-atom method many-body potential is modeled to describe the interaction of Fe-Fe atoms. We find that a textured surface can reduce the friction because the former can entrap wear particles, effectively reducing the contact area. In addition, the friction force increases almost linearly in the low sliding speed with the increasing of sliding speeds. However, the friction force decreased as the increasing speed exceeds the 300 m/s.
