Use of tribological design and surface engineering to improve riser valve components
This thesis is about the study of the wear behaviour of the superalloys Inconel and Incoloy, when sliding against each other within the oil and gas sector. Within riser valves, (which are used to pump oil from the seabed to the surface) there are a number of different valves which are made from supe...
