Download or read book Contact Analysis of Nominally Flat Surfaces written by Matthew R. Shellock and published by . This book was released on 2008-06-30 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A proper understanding of the mechanism of contact between two or more nominally flat surfaces is crucial in the design process of many devices. This thesis, using analytical and computational methods, models the former through the use of fractal characteristics at the contact interface. A parametric analysis of the fractal surface was completed in order to properly understand fractal geometry and its effect on surface properties. The fractal surface was simplified so that Hertz theory could be used to model surface deformation and resulting contact stresses. The data gathered from the model was then input into an existing electromagnetic rail gun program to study the contact surface effect on exit velocity, temperature, electrical conductivity, and contact area ratio. Finally, a study of the fractal parameter effects on the electromagnetic rail gun was completed.

Download or read book Contact Mechanics written by K. L. Johnson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1987-08-28 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This treatise is concerned with the stresses and deformation of solid bodies in contact with each other, along curved surfaces which touch initially at a point or along a line. Examples are a railway wheel and rail, or a pair of gear wheel teeth. Professor Johnson first reviews the development of the theory of contact stresses since the problem was originally addressed by H. Hertz in 1882. Next he discusses the influence of friction and the topographical roughness of surfaces, and this is incorporated into the theory of contact mechanics. An important feature is the treatment of bodies which deform plastically or viscoelastically. In addition to stationary contact, an appreciable section of the book is concerned with bodies which are in sliding or rolling contact, or which collide.

Download or read book Interfacial Mechanics written by Jane Wang and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 636 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the characteristics of material contact and lubrication at tribological interfaces is of great importance to engineering researchers and machine designers. Traditionally, contact and lubrication are separately studied due to technical difficulties, although they often coexist in reality and they are actually on the same physical ground. Fast research advancements in recent years have enabled the development and application of unified models and numerical approaches to simulate contact and lubrication, merging their studies into the domain of Interfacial Mechanics. This book provides updated information based on recent research progresses in related areas, which includes new concepts, theories, methods, and results for contact and lubrication problems involving elastic or inelastic materials, homogeneous or inhomogeneous contacting bodies, using stochastic or deterministic models for dealing with rough surfaces. It also contains unified models and numerical methods for mixed lubrication studies, analyses of interfacial frictional and thermal behaviors, as well as theories for studying the effects of multiple fields on interfacial characteristics. The book intends to reflect the recent trends of research by focusing on numerical simulation and problem solving techniques for practical interfaces of engineered surfaces and materials. This book is written primarily for graduate and senior undergraduate students, engineers, and researchers in the fields of tribology, lubrication, surface engineering, materials science and engineering, and mechanical engineering.
