An Integrated Statistical and Machine Learning Framework for Predicting the Dry Sliding Tribological Behavior of CFRP and GFRP Composites Under Environmental Aging and Loading Conditions

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract presents the experimental and data‐driven framework used to investigate the dry sliding tribological behavior of CFRP and GFRP composites. The effects of seawater, engine oil, diesel fuel, aging time, and normal load on the specific wear rate (SWR) and coefficient of friction (COF) were evaluated using pin‐on‐disc tests, ANOVA ...
