Abstract:Depending on the mechanical and thermal energy introduced to a dry sliding interface, the near-surface regions of the mated bodies may undergo plastic deformation. In this work, we use "differential EBSD tomography" to highlight changes to the microstructure near tribological fcc alloy surfaces, allowing us to detect subtle differences in lattice orientation and small distances in grain boundary migration. The analysis approach compares electron backscatter diffraction images generated from large-scale molecul… Show more
