Crack Nucleation in the Adhesive Wear of an Elastic-Plastic Half-Space
Lucas Frérot, Guillaume Anciaux, Jean-François Molinari
The detachment of material in an adhesive wear process is driven by a fracture mechanism which is controlled by a critical length-scale. Previous efforts in multi-asperity wear mod…
A Fourier-accelerated volume integral method for elastoplastic contact
Lucas Frérot, Marc Bonnet, Jean-François Molinari +1
The contact of solids with rough surfaces plays a fundamental role in physical phenomena such as friction, wear, sealing, and thermal transfer. However, its simulation is a challen…
The role of the roughness spectral breadth in elastic contact of rough surfaces
Vladislav A. Yastrebov, Guillaume Anciaux, Jean-François Molinari
We study frictionless and non-adhesive contact between elastic half-spaces with self-affine surfaces. Using a recently suggested corrective technique, we ensure an unprecedented ac…
On the accurate computation of the true contact-area in mechanical contact of random rough surfaces
Vladislav A. Yastrebov, Guillaume Anciaux, Jean-Francois Molinari
We introduce a corrective function to compensate errors in contact area computations coming from mesh discretization. The correction is based on geometrical arguments and requires…
