Contact Problem for a Viscoelastic Half-Space and a Rough Rigid Cylinder under the Conditions of Hydrodynamic Lubrication

Аннотация

A model has been proposed for use in studying the combined effect of the roughness of a rigid punch and the viscous properties of a base separated by a thin lubricant layer exerted on the characteristics of contact interactions and the sliding friction force. The problem of the motion of a thin a lubricant layer between a fixed rigid cylinder with a regular relief, as well as the surface of a moving viscoelastic half-space, the rheological properties of which are described by an integral operator with an exponential creep kernel, has been considered. The pressure and thickness of the lubricating layer, as well as the deformation component of the frictional force depending on the sliding velocity, have been analyzed. A comparison of the results of solutions of contact problems for viscoelastic and elastic rough bodies in the presence of a lubricant has been presented.
