Experimental study on wear properties of wheel and rail materials with different hardness values
Yue Hu,Yue Hu,Michael Watson,M. Maiorino,Lu Zhou,W.J. Wang,Haohao Ding,Roger Lewis,Enrico Meli,Andrea Rindi,Qiyue Liu,J. Guo +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of bulk hardness, post-test hardness, hardening ratio, and rail/wheel hardness ratio (HR/HW) on the wear rate of wheel and rail materials were analyzed.

Investigation of wrinkling failure mechanics in metal spinning by Box-Behnken design of experiments using finite element method
Michael Watson,Hui Long,Bin Lu +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effects of six key process and material parameters on the start of material wrinkling, including roller feed per pass, feed rate, blank thickness, tool path profile, material Young's modulus, yield stress and strain hardening exponent.
Wear mechanisms at the blade tip seal interface
Michael Watson,Matthew Marshall +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the wear mechanisms occurring at the interface between blade tips and compressor casings in modern gas turbine engines were characterised for two common abradable materials and changes to these mechanisms with blade speed, incursion rate and abradability hardness have been investigated and described statistically.

Effects of blade surface treatments in tip–shroud abradable contacts
TL;DR: In this paper, two surface treatments have been investigated, firstly cubic boron nitride (cBN) grits are bonded to the tip of the blade by electroplating, and then blades are coated in Cr(Al)N by cathodic arc deposition.

Nicolas Duboust,Michael Watson,Matthew Marshall,Garret E O’Donnel,Kevin Kerrigan +4 more
- 01 Aug 2021
TL;DR: In this paper, the carbon fiber reinforced polymer composite parts need to be trimmed before use to ensure both geometry and mechanical performance of the part edge matches the design intent. Measurement a...
