  text: The state of the art industrial manufacturing process to produce shafts as
    counter surfaces for radial shaft seal rings is plunge grinding. This process
    consists of three major steps. The blank is turned to a slight diameter-oversize
    followed by the heat treatment and the hard-finishing by plunge grinding. The
    geometric surface structures of the resulting shafts in general exhibit a stochastic
    distribution. These surface characteristics contribute to a reliable and stable
    sealing functionality. And the surface and subsurface hardness generally leads
    to a higher wear resistance of the shaft. Motivated by economic benefits and in
    order to achieve a compact production process for at least ten years, turning
    is investigated as an alternative manufacturing process. However due to the resulting
    lead structure on the shaft surface and the associated risk of leakage it has
    not become prevalent yet. In this paper turned shafts of the metastable austenitic
    steel AISI 347 (1.4550, X6CrNiNb1810) are investigated as alternative material
    for counter surfaces of radial shaft seal rings and compared to turned shafts
    of carburized AISI 5115 (1.7131, 16MnCr5). In addition to surfaces dry turned
    at room-temperature, cryogenic turned AISI 347 counter surfaces are analyzed.
    By applying cryogenic cooling, the formation of deformation-induced α′-martensite
    in the surface layer is possible during the turning process. Endurance tests in
    radial shaft seal ring test rigs are performed and complemented with detailed
    investigations of microstructure, micro-hardness and surface topography. The results
    are compared to results of state of the art ground AISI 5115 shafts.

  text: Radial shaft seals are used in a variety of applications, where rotating shafts
    in steady housings have to be sealed. Typical examples are crankshafts, camshafts,
    differential gear or hydraulic pumps. In the operating state the elastomeric seal
    ring and the shaft are separated by a lubrication film of just a few micrometers.
    Due to shear strain and fluid friction the contact area is subject to a higher
    temperature than the rest of the seal ring. The stiffness of the elastomeric material
    is intensely influenced by this temperature and thus contact pressure, friction
    and wear also strongly depend on the contact temperature. In order to simulate
    the contact behavior of elastomer seal rings it is essential to use a comprehensive
    approach which takes into consideration the interaction of temperature, friction
    and wear. Based on this idea a macroscopic simulation model has been developed
    at the MEGT. It combines a finite element approach for the simulation of contact
    pressure at different wear states, a semi-analytical approach for the calculation
    of contact temperature and an empirical approach for the calculation of friction.
    In this paper the model setup is presented, as well as simulation and experimental
    results.

  text: 'A profound description of friction in wheel--rail contact plays an essential
    role for optimization of traction control strategies, as input quantity for railway
    simulations in general and for the estimation of wear and rolling contact fatigue.
    A multitude of wheel--rail contact models exists, however, traction--creepage
    curves obtained from measurements show quantitative and qualitative deviations.
    There are several phenomena which influence the traction--creepage characteristics:
    Mechanisms resulting from surface roughness, frictional heating or the presence
    of interfacial fluids can have a dominating influence on friction. In this paper,
    a new wheel--rail contact model, accounting for these influential parameters,
    will be presented. The presented model accounts for the interaction of an interfacial
    fluid model for combined boundary and mixed lubrication of rough surfaces with
    a wheel--rail contact model that additionally accounts for frictional heating.
    A quantitative comparison with measurements found in the literature is not conducted,
    since the exact conditions of the measurements are mostly unknown and parameters
    can easily be adjusted to fit the measurements. Emphasis is placed on the qualitative
    behavior of the model with respect to the measurements and good agreement is found.
    The dependence of the maximum traction coefficient on rolling velocity, surface
    roughness and normal load is studied under dry and water lubricated conditions.'
