    Adhesive Contact of Elastic Solids with Self-Affine Fractal Rough Surfaces

    The elastic adhesive contact of self-affine fractal rough surfaces against a rigid flat is simulated using the finite element method. An array of nonlinear springs, of which the force-separation law obeys the ...

    An improved elastic–plastic contact model with asperity interactions based on Greenwood–Williamson theory

    Real contact area plays a critical role in tribology. However, few contact models can give accurate load-area relation at very large contact fraction due to the lack of asperity interactions. In this work, an ...
