This overview of the various wear mechanisms illustrates the complexity of the problem of predicting wear. However, within a certain range of validity, to be specified, when thermal effects remain limited, we have seen in the article [TRI 500] and the present article that a contact can be characterized by the wear rate of the parts:

k=VPL( 10 )
