In this paper, we study the steady-state rolling contact of a linear viscoelastic layer of finite thickness and a rigid indenter made of a periodic array of equally spaced rigid cylinders. The viscoelastic contact model is derived by means of Green’s function approach, which allows solving the contact problem with the sliding velocity as a control parameter. The contact problem is solved by means of an accurate numerical procedure developed for general two-dimensional contact geometries. The effect of geometrical quantities (layer thickness, cylinders radii, and cylinders spacing), material properties (viscoelastic moduli, relaxation time) and operative conditions (load, velocity) are all investigated. Physical quantities typical of contact problems (contact areas, deformed profiles, etc.) are calculated and discussed. Special emphasis is dedicated to the viscoelastic friction force coefficient and to the energy dissipated per unit time. The discussion is focused on the role played by the deformation localized at the contact spots and the one in the bulk of the thin layer, due to layer bending. The model is proposed as an accurate solution for engineering applications such as belt conveyors, in which the energy dissipated on the rolling contact of idle rollers can, in some cases, be by far the most important contribution to their energy consumption.

AbstractIn the present paper, we study inverse problems for a class of nonlinear hemivariational inequalities. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a solution to inverse problems. Finally, we introduce an inverse problem for an electro-elastic frictional contact problem to illustrate our results.

Plane Contact Problem

The state of stress present in an elastic half-plane contact problem, where one or both bodies is subject to remote tension has been investigated, both for conditions of full stick and partial slip. The state of stress present near the contact edges is studied for different loading scenarios in an asymptotic form. This is of practical relevance to the study of contacts experiencing fretting fatigue, and enables the environment in which cracks nucleate to be specified.

Abstract The aim of this paper is to study a quasistatic contact problem between an electro-elastic viscoplastic body with damage and an electrically conductive foundation. The contact is modelled with an electrical condition, normal compliance and the associated version of Coulomb’s law of dry friction in which slip dependent friction is included. We derive a variational formulation for the model and, under a smallness assumption, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution.
