Elastic Rough Surface Contact and the Root Mean Square Slope of Measured Surfaces over Multiple Scales

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2021
This study investigates the predictions of the real contact area for perfectly elastic rough surfaces using a boundary element method (BEM). Sample surface measurements were used in the BEM to predict the real contact area as a function of load.

From Geometry to Coherent Dissipative Dynamics in Quantum Mechanics

open access: yesQuantum Reports, 2021
Starting from the geometric description of quantum systems, we propose a novel approach to time-independent dissipative quantum processes according to which energy is dissipated but the coherence of the states is preserved.

FFT-Based Methods for Computational Contact Mechanics

open access: yesFrontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2020
Computational contact mechanics seeks for numerical solutions to contact area, pressure, deformation, and stresses, as well as flash temperature, in response to the interaction of two bodies.

A case study on the observability of cutting fluid flow and the associated contact mechanics in scaled rough surfaces

open access: yesSN Applied Sciences, 2021
In grinding processes, heat is generated by the contact of the grains with the workpiece. In order to reduce damages on the workpiece and the grinding tool, cutting fluids are necessary for most grinding processes.

Contact Hamiltonian Description of 1D Frictional Systems

open access: yesCommunications in Advanced Mathematical Sciences, 2021
In this paper, we consider contact Hamiltonian description of 1D frictional dynamics with no conserved force. Friction forces that are monomials of velocity, and sum of two monomials are considered.

Contact mechanics for randomly rough surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
When two solids are squeezed together they will in general not make atomic contact everywhere within the nominal (or apparent) contact area. This fact has huge practical implications and must be considered in many technological applications.

Fractal Contact Mechanics Model for the Rough Surface of a Beveloid Gear with Elliptical Asperities

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Understanding the contact mechanics of rough tooth surfaces is critical in order to understand phenomena such as tooth surface flash temperature, tooth surface wear, and gear vibration.
