โฆ Synopsis
It will be observed that the method was to compare the relative loss of metal by wear of various alloys with a certain standard'alloy. It should be stated that likewise observations were made on the behavior of the experimental alloys ~s to heating. No.observations were made as to the difference in friction with the different alloys. This field is entirely unexplored, so far as I know. The first test was a compari-,son of the old copper-tin alloy with the standard phosphorbronze bearing metal. The results obtained were as follows :
