Artificial neural network modeling of sliding wear

Abstract

A widely used type of artificial neural networks, called multilayer perceptron, is applied for data-driven modeling of the wear coefficient in sliding wear under constant testing conditions. The integral and differential forms of wear equation are utilized for designing an artificial neural network-based model for the wear rate. The developed artificial neural network modeling framework can be utilized in studies of wearing-in period and the so-called true wear coefficient. Examples of the use of the developed approach are given based on the experimental data published recently.
