  text: "In a previous paper, the correlation between the wear resistance of coatings
    and the lifetime of electrical connectors under fretting load was discovered.
    Based on this knowledge, various modifications of silver-based coatings with markedly
    increased wear resistance have been developed, and a calculation model for predicting
    connector lifetime has been formulated. Investigations on silver-coated electrical
    contacts with increased wear resistance show extended lifetimes in fretting wear
    and fretting corrosion tests, and the calculation model with various modified
    coating materials can be validated. However, contacts with very high wear-resistant
    coatings fail earlier than the specific wear coefficient and the calculation model
    prediction suggest.\r\nThe in-depth investigation of the coating material and
    the wear scar revealed the reasons for this unexpectedly shorter lifetime. The
    high wear resistance of modified silver coatings is achieved by increased micro-hardness.
    Both coatings with coating materials of high hardness and high thickness can lead
    to longer lifetimes under fretting load. However, increased fretting cycles can
    also cause fatigue and electrical contacts can fail due to delamination of the
    surface coating caused by fretting fatigue, and this delamination can lead to
    a sudden exposure of the base material, thus enabling its corrosion.\r\nTherefore,
    both wear resistance and fatigue resistance should be increased in order to achieve
    a long lifetime of electrical contacts under fretting load."
