Wind action affects soil formation in 3 ways (1) deflation, (2) abrasion and erosion, and (3) transport and accumulation (Verheye, 2006). 

Abrasion and erosion. The dust-loaded wind has an erosive action and contributes to a physical disintegration of rock surfaces or to a polishing of the components of the desert pavement, giving them a characteristic patina desert varnish) and shape (ventifacts). 

Table 1 of a paper by Murr (2) lists problems and/or concerns related to specific interface materials and specific components of SECS. In Table 2 of the same work, he related topical study areas and/or research problems to S/S, S/L, S/G, L/L, and L/G interfaces. It is also useful to divide interface science into specific topical areas of study and consider how these will apply to interfaces in solar materials. These study areas are thin films grain, phase, and interfacial boundaries oxidation and corrosion adhesion semiconductors surface processes, chemisorption, and catalysis abrasion and erosion photon-assisted surface reactions and photoelectrochemistry and interface characterization methods. The actual or potential solar applications, research issues and/or concerns, and needs and opportunities are presented in the proceedings of a recent Workshop (4) and summarized in a recent review (3). 

Of these groups, the castable, thermoplastic, and sprayable polyurethanes have the greatest abrasive and erosive wear resistance. 

Failure may be mechanical, due to wear, abrasion and erosion, britle fracture, surface deterioration, cyclic loading, embrittlement, thermal or pressure shock, or fatigue. Failure may also be chemical, in essence due to corrosion. 

Of particular note is the importance of erosion in accelerating tooth wear. The softening of enamel and dentine surfaces by erosive attacks from acid renders the surface extremely susceptible to mechanical attacks [9]. Abfraction is also an example of interaction between wear mechanisms, where abrasion and erosion may act in combination with cyclic loading and unloading to produce an overall wear effect.

Duplex stainless steels offer high strength, coupled with resistance to abrasion and erosion and to stress corrosion cracking. It is claimed that Ferralium alloy... 

However, this view has been challenged. For example, Lee and Eakle [77] suggested that they arise from a combination of factors, of which occlusal stress is one, but with abrasion and erosion also playing a part. Similarly, Spranger [78] has proposed a combination of factors in the development of cervical lesions, and that the phenomenon is related to the tooth anatomy, occlusion and parafunction, all of which contribute to elastic deformation forces at the neck of the tooth and which are augmented by wear phenomena [78],...

The extreme abrasion and erosion resistance of polycrystalline CVD diamond combined with chemical inertness, make it a perfect candidate for use in applications such as wear parts, solid-state sensors, actuators and tools [85,86]. The combination of diamond s hardness, high Young modulus, very low coefficient of friction (less than 0.1 in air) and low wear rates (less than 10 m )...

Urethane is used to line tanks and piping. It is also applied as a coating to protect concrete from chemical attack and to prevent seepage of the corrodent into the concrete and attacking the reinforcing steel. Protection from abrasion and erosion is also provided. 

Some of the problems caused by sand and dust include abrasion and erosion of surfaces and finishes (generally paint finishes), penetration of seals, degradation of switch relays, contaminations of lubricated bearings and bushings, etc. 

Corrosion. Wear caused by chemical action (cf. abrasion and erosion (q.v.). See also slag attack. ASTM C 621 and C 622 describe tests for the resistance of refractories to corrosion by molten glass.

Zinc sulfate is soluble in water and may be washed away by rain leaving the zinc unprotected, producing a high corrosion rate. The protective coating may also be damaged by abrasion and erosion.

In the case of slurries, the wear is accelerated by the very nature of the abrasive and erosive particles. Spent mUl liners, spent mill balls, steel grading, and spent pump Unets are installed at the bottom of drop boxes to prevent wear. It is not always cost effective to design for a scouring depth equal to one third of the free fall. 

The axial thrust is due to the fact that the pressure on the suction side is different from the pressure on the back of the impeller. There is a difference between plain impeUers and impellers with pump-out vanes, but since pumpout vanes wear out with time due to abrasion and erosion, the design engineer should conduct his calculations for both cases of im-... 

Plastics are often used for abrasion and erosion resistance, but like abrasivity, there are no agreed-to tests to rate materials for ftiese types of applications. 

CARBON AND GRAPHITE. Carbon boasts high resistance to thermal shock, and a strength that increases with temperature. It is chemically inactive, not wet by most molten metals and resists abrasion and erosion. Graphite, in addition, has high thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion, high electrical conductivity, is relatively pure and is easily machinable.
