Abstract: This article is concerned with the simulation of a lubricated contact considering the fluid to be non-Newtonian of the Maxwell type. Severe operating conditions lead to very small surface-to-surface ...

Abstract: Homogenization is a formal mathematical two-scale averaging process that can be applied to roughness problems and can replace previous heuristic averaging procedures, which have sometimes led to ...

Abstract: This study presents both a laboratory test and a model for simulating the polishing phenomenon of road surfaces when subjected to traffic. In laboratory tests a machine called “Wehner-Schulze machine” is used which performs ...
