田中 宏昌, Joichi Sugimura, Suguru Ikeda, Different failure modes in rolling contact of steel under grease lubrication, STLE tribology frontier 2014, 2014.10, Rolling contact fatigue test under grease lubrication is conducted for the purpose of clarifying effect of surrounding gas on rolling contact fatigue life. The influence of temperature, atmosphere, and grease types is investigated through surface analysis, hydrogen diffused in steel, the composition of surface film and the characteristics of lubrication state. The bearing life depended on environment and lubricant, and surface failure was classified into three types in terms of surface roughness and temperature change. At higher temperature, there is a tendency that roughness becomes smaller and bearing life is extended.. |

田中 宏昌, Joichi Sugimura, Taiki komatsu, Effects of environmental gas on decomposition of lubricant and hydrogen generation at nascent iron surface, Asiatrib2014, 2014.02, Lubricated sliding tests of iron were made in a temperature controlled chamber, and the amount of hydrogen generated was determined with gas chromatography. The lubricants used included polyalphaolephine polyorester, polypropyrenglycol and dimethyl silicone oil. It was found that the amount of hydrogen generated is significantly larger when nascent surface is continuously created than under static non-sliding conditions. It was also found that hydrogen generation is retarded when the environment gas contains more oxygen. Among the oils tested, the silicone oil showed very low hydrogen generation under non-sliding condition while it generates much greater amount of hydrogen than other lubricants.. |

田中 宏昌, PERMEATION OF HYDROGEN INTO STEEL IN SIMPLE CYCLIC CONTACT TESTS, ISFF7, 2013.04, This paper describes permeation of hydrogen under simple mechanical motion at tribo-interface. It has been believed that hydrogen plays an important role in degrading mechanical properties of ferrous materials in rolling contact. It is necessary to study each of the effects of elementary processes at contact and slip on hydrogen permeation into steel. An experimental apparatus was used which enabled a variety of simple contact tests with cyclic normal loading and reciprocating sliding for each in controlled environment. |
