On the Rabinowicz like criterion of formation of wear particles in a system with a soft surface layer
Valentin L. Popov
In 1958, Ernest Rabinowicz suggested a simple criterion distinguishing the regimes of plastic smoothing and formation of wear particles in a contact of homogeneous sliding bodies.…
Thermo - mechanical instabilities in friction contact
Valentin L. Popov, Andreas Fischersworring-Bunk
The phenomenon of corrugated surfaces is a known technical problem of tribological systems; considerable work has been published in the past on the aspect of rail corrugation of ra…
On the application of the Method of Dimensionality Reduction to two-dimensional contacts
Valentin L. Popov
The conventional formulation of the Method of Dimensionality Reduction (MDR) in contact mechanics is only applicable two "point contacts", that is to contacts of two unbounded thre…
Generalized master curve procedure for elastomer friction taking into account dependencies on velocity, temperature and normal force
Valentin L. Popov, Lars Voll, Stephan Kusche +2
In the sliding contact of elastomer on a rigid substrate, the coefficient of friction may depend on a large number of system and loading parameters, including normal force, sliding…
