In this paper, the contact of a rigid sinusoid sliding on a viscoelastic half-space is studied. The solution of the problem is obtained by following the path drawn by Hunter for cylindrical contacts. Results show that depending on the remote applied load, a transition from full contact conditions to partial contact may occur depending on the sliding velocity. This effect, which is not observed in smooth single asperity contacts, is related to the viscoelastic stiffening of the material and to the periodicity of the contacts. Frictional properties as well as contact area, displacement and pressure distributions are discussed in detail.

In this paper, the sliding contact of a rigid sinusoid over a viscoelastic halfplane is studied by means of an analytical procedure that reduced the original viscoelastic system to an elastic equivalent one, which has been already solved in [1]. In such a way, the solution of the original viscoelastic contact problem requires just to numerically solve a set of two integral equations. Results show the viscoelasticity influence on the solution by means of a detailed analysis of contact area, pressure and displacement distribution. A particular attention is paid to the transition from full contact to partial contact conditions.

The Diamond-like carbon coating (DLC) was derived by the PVCD method on the 45 steel surfaces. The frictional properties and fatigue failure of 45 steel with the DLC films were investigated under three different conditions including full contact condition, horizontal reciprocating movements and vertical reciprocating movements. It was found that (a) at full contact conditions: the increase in the load leads to the initial decrease in the frictional coefficient and then increase, and a lowest frictional coefficient of 0.205 appears at 250N; (b) at horizontal reciprocating conditions: the slow decrease in the frictional coefficient was caused by the increase in load, and frictional coefficients of 0.213 and 0.178 appears at 100N and 300N, respectively; (c) at vertical reciprocating conditions: the frictional coefficient was initially enhanced and then followed by a decrease trend; the highest frictional coefficients of 0.640 appears at load of 200N. The wear rate was slightly enhanced as the load is lower than 200N, and was sharply increased with the further increase in the load. The lowest wear rate was 1.55 mg/10000r, and the highest wear rate was 15.6mg/10000r.

In this work, we investigate the effect of contact vibration on the friction of sliding single asperity contacts of different adhesion strength over a wide range of load and vibration amplitude. We convert the amplitude of vibration to its equivalent modulation force and tip-oscillation velocity. We observe a logarithmic relationship between friction and the ratio of the modulation force to the normal force and between friction and the ratio of sliding velocity to the tip-oscillation velocity. We discuss these logarithmic dependencies based on an induced corrugation of the tip-sample interaction potential.

This paper is concerned with the plane-strain problem of an elastic layer supported on a half-space foundation and indented by a cylinder. A study is presented of the effect of the contact condition at the layer-foundation interface on the contact stresses of the indented layer. For the general problem of elastic indenter or elastic foundation, the integral equations governing the contact stress distribution of the indented layer derived on the basis of two-dimensional theory of elasticity are given and a numerical method of solution is formulated. The limiting contact conditions at the layer-foundation interface are then investigated by considering two extreme cases, one with the indented layer in frictionless contact with the half space and the other with the indented layer rigidly adhered to the half space. Graphs of the bounds on the maximum normal stress occurring in indented elastic layers for the cases of rigid cylindrical indenter and rigid half-space foundation are obtained for possible practical applications. Some results of the elastic indenter problem are also presented and discussed.

The present work aims to analyze the influence of the in-plan distribution of asperities on the contact between periodically rough surfaces. Square pattern and hexagonal pattern rigid surfaces are considered. Their contact with an elastic half-space is analyzed by numerical simulations. Three surfaces are generated with identical asperities periodically distributed in a plan according to different patterns. It follows from numerical results that when the load and the real contact area are small, the asperities act almost independently. However, the interaction between close asperities increases with the load becomes intensified and has a significant effect on the contact area when the situation is close to full contact.

AbstractThis article describes the details of scanning probe microscopy measurements of interfacial friction from an experimental perspective. In such studies, the probe tip is taken as a model of a single asperity within a tribological contact, and interfacial forces are measured as a function of the sliding contact of the probe tip with the surface. With appropriate detection schemes, friction and load forces can be monitored simultaneously and used together to describe the frictional properties of the microscopic contact. This article provides a detailed description of the procedures and protocols of friction measurements performed with scanning probe microscopy, the relevant properties of probe tips, and the influence of environment on microscopic friction measurements. In addition, the article provides a brief overview of several categories of friction studies performed with scanning probe microscopy, highlighting the type of materials characterized in these studies as well as the importance and impact of the microscopic measurements.

This paper presents a range of variable machining factors which influence substantially friction directly or by the tool wear developed in the cutting zone. The group of direct factors include the workpiece and cutting tool materials coupled, the cutting/sliding velocity, cooling media supplied to the tool-chip contact zone, modification of the tool contact faces by micro-texturing. Special attention was paid to the tool wear evolution and its pronounced effect on changes of the contact conditions.
