Definition of boundary values of thickness of chrome coverings of piston rings

An approach to the definition of adhesion and cohesion stresses that appear in a piston ring after chroming and its mounting on the piston, its performance in a motor, and corresponding conditions of the critical thicknesses of the covering on the basis of a representation of the ring as a two-layer beam is described.Translated from Dinamicheskie Sistemy, No. 9, pp. 72–76, 1990.
