A Numerical Study of the Partial Slip Elliptical Contact under Fretting Conditions

Article Preview

Abstract:

The technologically important elliptical contact undergoing fretting is simulated using previously advanced state-of-the-art numerical tools. The influence of contact ellipse eccentricity on various contact parameters is assessed. An analogy with the circular contact is found when tractions equations are written in dimensionless coordinates in case of similarly elastic materials. However, when an elastic mismatch is introduced, the stick area no longer follows proportionally the established contact area.
