AbstractAlthough many parameters for metallic alloy systems can be obtained in the literature, there are limited studies about the relationship between residual stress and tribological performance of the metallic alloy systems. In this study residual stress measurement was performed by straingauge method to investigate on residual stress, hardness and wear behaviours of Al-Cu-Ni Heusler Alloys before and after aging process. Wear tests were carried out using two different loads (10N and 20N) in dry sliding conditions. Results show that aging time effects mechanical behaviour of heusler alloys. Also Best wear resistance is belonging to the aged samples under load of 10N.
