摘要
Wear of machine parts is an important problem in operating life of machines. Rationalwear and running-in procedures are able to machine parts improve in conformity, surface topog-raphy and frictional compatibility during usage, therefore improving machine reliability and pro-longing its operating life. Hence, it is necessary to study the topography characterization of thesurfaces of friction pairs and its change laws in wear or running-in process. This paper appliesfractal theory to study the characterization of the worn surface topographies of friction pairs duringthe initial stage of wear process. Experimental researches show that the fractal parameters of thesurface topographies of friction pairs will reach their steady-state values, respectively, with thewear process going on. And the variations of the fractal parameters have corresponding laws fortwo samples of friction pairs.

This paper applies fractal theory to study the characterization of the worn surface topographies of friction pairs during the initial stage of wear process. Experimental researches show that the fractal parameters of the surface topographies of friction pairs will reach their steady-state values, respectively, with the wear process going on. And the variations of the fractal parameters have corresponding laws for two samples of friction pairs.
