Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Friction, wear, and corrosion are significant issues in materials engineering. Friction is a force that resists the relative motion of two surfaces in contact, while wear is the gradual loss of material that results from friction. Corrosion, on the other hand, involves the degradation of materials due to chemical reactions with the environment. Research on the friction, wear, and corrosion properties of materials has focused on understanding the mechanisms that underlie these phenomena and developing strategies for improving the performance and durability of materials.
In conclusion, research on friction, wear, and corrosion properties of materials is crucial for improving the performance and durability of materials used in various applications. Researchers have studied the underlying mechanisms of these phenomena, as well as strategies for improving material properties. By gaining a better understanding of these processes, researchers can develop materials that can resist wear and corrosion and reduce the energy lost due to friction.
As a prominent contributor in the field, we cordially invite you to share your latest research findings in this Special Issue. Additionally, we welcome review articles on related topics. We look forward to your contributions and the opportunity to jointly advance this exciting area of research.

Abstract: Cold drawing has been widely applied to manufacture various metal wires or rods with highly precise dimensions. However, the temperature increase during the drawing process, resulting from high drawing speeds, greatly influences the product dimensions and the die life.
In this study, temperature distributions inside the rod and die for different friction coefficients and constant drawing speeds are numerically analyzed. A wear model is proposed to predict the die life. The commercial finite element software DEFORM is used to simulate the temperature distributions inside the rod and the die set, composed of a tungsten carbide insert and a mild steel frame. The thermal conductance coefficients at the interface of the die set are determined experimentally. The Series of temperature detective experiments is self-design and uses existing drawing die. The highest temperature at the front part of the die bearing can reach as high as 200°C with a drawing speed of 140 mm/s. The temperature at the die exit is measured and compared with simulation results to validate the finite element modeling for temperature distributions during the drawing process.
The finite element software DEFORM, combined with a wear model, is also used to simulate the extent of wear at the surface of the inner die, which influences the final dimensions of the drawn product and the die life. The position with the severest wear is approximately the same place as the interface pressure at the die surface. The profiles of the inner die before and after the drawing processes are measured, and the wear amounts are compared with simulation results to verify the proposed wear modeling.
