The aim of this study is to characterize the baseline fretting behavior of Ti-6Al-4V on Ti-6Al-4V in point contact. The displacement amplitudes span the partial slip, mixed fretting, and gross slip fretting regimes. Surface cracks are only observed when the displacement amplitude is near the transition between partial and gross slip regimes.
