Abstract: The fractal parameters (fractal dimension and topothesy), describing the contact behavior of rough surface, were considered as constant in the earlier models. However, their results are often ...

Abstract: An elastic-plastic asperity fractal model for analyzing the contact of rough surfaces is presented. Instead of using the power-law relation, which is widely used to predict the number, N, of ...

Abstract: The three-dimensional hyperbolic heat conduction equation is solved to obtain the analytical solution of the temperature rise at the contact area between an asperity and a moving smooth flat. ...
