A Dynamic Contact Model of Rough Surfaces Based on the Microscopic Contact Analysis of Asperities

Dynamic contact model of rough surfaces can provide the theoretical basis for analyzing the microscopic damage of surfaces in wear process and constructing the analytical wear model to predict wear. A dynamic contact model of sliding rough surfaces is innovatively constructed based on the characterization of the contact asperities on rough surfaces in this paper. Firstly, an asperity model of rough surface is set up according to the surface topography parameters and the static contact parameters is evaluated in the light of statistics contact theory; Then the contact characteristic of surface topography in sliding is analyzed and a series of equivalent contact models are proposed; Finally, the dynamic contact model of rough surfaces is established and from which the dynamic contact parameter of rough surfaces is formulated. The dynamic contact model can be further improved to analyze the friction fatigue wear of sliding pairs and provide reference for tribology design of mechanical surfaces.
