Contact involving soft materials often combines dry adhesion, sliding friction, and large deformations. At the local level, these three aspects are rarely captured simultaneously, but included in the theoretical models by Mergel et al.…
We model numerically the partial normal contact of two elastic rough surfaces with highly correlated asperities. Facing surfaces are unmated and described as self-affine with a Hurst exponent H. The numerical algorithm is based on Fourier…
Recently proposed formulation of the Boundary Element Method for adhesive contacts has been generalized for contacts of functionally graded materials with and without adhesion. First, proceeding from the fundamental solution for single…
We develop an analytical model of adhesive wear between two unlubricated rough surfaces, forming micro-contacts under normal load. The model is based on an energy balance and a crack initiation criteria. We apply the model to the problem of…
Various adhesion mechanisms that have been understood in the field of synthetic adhesives are described and these are linked with situations relevant to fouling issues. The review mainly deals with mechanical aspects of adhesion phenomena,…
A new variational formulation is herein proposed for the solution of adhesive contact problems for non-planar profiles of arbitrary shape indenting a deformable half-plane. The method exploits the original idea of accounting for the shape…
In this paper we extend the asymptotic analysis in [LLOO], performed on a structure consisting of two linearly elastic bodies connected by a thin soft nonlinear Kelvin-Voigt viscoelastic adhesive layer, to the case in which the total mass…
In this study, we propose a theory of rough adhesive contact of viscoelastic materials in steady-state sliding. By exploiting a boundary formulation based on Green function approach, the unknown contact domain is calculated by enforcing the…
This paper is devoted to a study of time-dependent hemivariational inequality. We prove existence and uniqueness of its solution, provide fully discrete scheme and reformulate this scheme as a series of nonsmooth optimization problems. This…
The friction and adhesion between elastic bodies are strongly influenced by the roughness of the surfaces in contact. Here we develop a multiscale molecular dynamics approach to contact mechanics, which can be used also when the surfaces…
In this two part series, we present a contact model able to capture the response of interacting adhesive elastic-perfectly plastic particles under a variety of loadings. In Part I, we focus on elastic through fully-plastic contact with and…
We present fully analytical solutions for the deformation of a stretched soft substrate due to the static wetting of a large liquid droplet, and compare our solutions to recently published experiments (Xu et al, Soft Matter 2018). Following…
Inhomogeneity and anisotropy play a crucial role in attributing articular cartilage its properties. The frictionless contact model constructed here consists in two thin biphasic transversely isotropic transversely homogeneous (TITH)…
The contact between rough surfaces with adhesion is an extremely difficult problem, and the approximation of the DMT theory (to neglect deformations due to attractive forces), originally developed for spherical contact of very small radius,…
We study the adhesion of an elastic sheet on a rigid spherical substrate. Gauss'Theorema Egregium shows that this operation necessarily generates metric distortions (i.e. stretching) as well as bending. As a result, a large variety of…
We consider a family of linearly elastic shells with thickness $2\varepsilon$ (where $\varepsilon$ is a small parameter). The shells are clamped along a portion of their lateral face, all having the same middle surface $S$, and may enter in…
Engineering wear models are generally empirical and lack connections to the physical processes of debris generation at the nanoscale to microscale. Here, we thus analyze wear particle formation for sliding interfaces in dry contact with…
In this paper we introduce an abstract nonsmooth optimization problem and prove existence and uniqueness of its solution. We present a numerical scheme to approximate this solution. The theory is later applied to a sample static contact…
The load-area relation of rough surfaces is of great interest in tribology. For elastic-plastic solids with strain hardening, an incremental model is adopted to analyze the contact of rough surfaces, in which the contact is modeled by…
A lattice of elastic rods organized in a parallelepiped geometry can be axially loaded up to an arbitrary amount without distortion and then be subject to incremental displacements. Using quasi-static homogenization theory, this lattice can…
