Abstract: The elastohydrodynamic lubrication line contact problem between a functionally graded material (FGM) coated half-plane and a rigid cylindrical punch is investigated. The inhomogeneous elastic properties of the FGM coating ...

Abstract: Using surface elasticity theory, this article first analyzes the surface effect on the elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) line contact between an elastic half-plane and a rigid cylindrical punch. In this theory, the ...

Abstract: Abstract. In practice, most electrical contacts occur on curved surfaces. However, existing studies have primarily focused on predicting the electrical contact resistance (ECR) of nominally flat surfaces. This study develops ...
