Molecular mechanisms of self-mated hydrogel friction
Jan Mees, Rok Simič, Thomas C. O'Connor +2
Self-mated hydrogel contacts show extremely small friction coefficients at low loads but a distinct velocity dependence. Here we combine mesoscopic simulations and experiments to t…
The surface-topography challenge: Problem definition
Tevis D. B. Jacobs, Nathaniel Miller, Martin H. Müser +1
We present to the community a surface-definition problem, whose solution we consider to be critical for the proper description of contacts between nominally flat surfaces [1,2]. In…
Interatomic potentials: Achievements and challenges
Martin H. Muser, Sergey V. Sukhomlinov, Lars Pastewka
Interatomic potentials approximate the potential energy of atoms as a function of their coordinates. Their main application is the effective simulation of many-atom systems. Here,…
Optimal FFT-accelerated Finite Element Solver for Homogenization
Martin Ladecký, Richard J. Leute, Ali Falsafi +4
We propose a matrix-free finite element (FE) homogenization scheme that is considerably more efficient than generic FE implementations. The efficiency of our scheme follows from a…
contact.engineering -- Create, analyze and publish digital surface twins from topography measurements across many scales
Michael C. Röttger, Antoine Sanner, Luke A. Thimons +6
The optimization of surface finish to improve performance occurs largely through trial and error, despite significant advancements in the relevant science. There are three central…
Nonequilibrium plastic roughening of metallic glasses yields self-affine topographies with strain-rate and temperature-dependent scaling exponents
Wolfram G. Nöhring, Adam R. Hinkle, Lars Pastewka
We study nonequilibrium roughening during compressive plastic flow of initially flat CuZr metallic glass using large-scale molecular dynamics simulations. Roughness e…
