Apart from severe plastic deformation and surface nanocrystalli-
zation, another structural modication is the formation of strain-
induced martensite, which is a well-known phenomenon in severely 0.15
deformed austenitic stainless steel [10,17]. It has been shown that
martensites form at intersections between multidirectional
mechanical twins [17]. Thus, the much increased hardness in the 0.1
deformed layer shown in Fig. 3b is the combination results of strain
hardening, structural nanocrystallization and martensite formation.

From Fig. 3b, it is also evident that the hardness and thickness of the

the fact that as the wear track surface was fully hardened by that nanocrystallization of iron ingot was effective in improving
strain, it was no longer able to accommodate the plastic strain lubricated sliding wear resistance, although it reduced unlubricated
sliding wear resistance. Prolometry measurements (Fig. 9) revealed
that plastic deformation has played an important role in material
removal from the wear track: two third of the material removed
from the wear track on the untreated specimen was in the form of
material pileup at the edges of the track. Material removal in this
form from the SMA treated specimen was less, but still amounted up
to 40%. Clearly, the high hardness of the SMA treated surface
provided more resistance to plastic deformation and thus lowered
the wear rate under the lubrication condition. Material loss in the
form of wear debris formation was signicantly reduced due to the
lubrication effect. Fig. 13 shows typical microscopic images of the

deformation and mild abrasive wear due to asperity contact with
the harder slider. In addition, the low COF under lubrication (0.11)
determines that the shear stress at the surface was relatively low
which also contributed to the much reduced delamination wear
which requires crack initiation and propagation.
