Archard wear Model doesn't concerns particular hardness property, specifically like Brinell, Rockwell or Vickers hardness.
Has anyone used the Archard wear model with particular hardness property? And why so?
Dear Ranjeet Kumar S. Gupta,
Archard Wear Model is the potential for predicting abrasive wear rate. In general, during the sliding process, an individual (or) combination of multiple wear mechanisms is occurring. Among different kinds of wear mechanisms, the abrasive wear mechanism is directly related to Archard's wear model as indicated below. If, surface hardness is increased it will be offering a reduced wear rate. Technically, a hard surface providing a higher load-bearing capacity. Hence, the hard asperities from the countersurface can't penetrate the hard surface (test sample) deeper (similar to the indentation behavior - hardness test).
Archard Wear Model is, W = k (w/H)
Here, W - Wear rate. k - constant, w - load, and H - hardness.
I also used Archard's wear model for my tribological analysis.

If you need more clarification, don't hesitate to contact me.
Best wishes.
Thank you Filippo Piccini for your reply on this and the helpful Link.
Thank you P. Seenuvasaperumal for your reply on this topic. One of your article mentions that you used Vickers Hardness testing, so is it a norm for such materials or how did you decide on that?
It's clearly explained in the manuscript itself. Here, the necessity for hardness evaluation was grain refinement. Also, I explained at the end of the manuscript that, even though hardness increased by grain refinement, it's not influenced to the reduction in wear rate because of the delamination wear mechanism.
Thank you.
Thank you for clarifying on this. Though, I am looking for a method to decide on the Archard Wear Criteria for studying wear in a plate-on-plate or pin-on-plate type wear.
