AN ANALYTICAL APPROACH TO THE THIRD BODY MODELLING IN FRETTING WEAR CONTACT: A MINIREVIEW

In fretting wear contact, the third body is defined as the wear debris bed between two contacting bodies. The problem of third-body modelling is considered from a point of view of contact mechanics. This paper is restricted to a discussion of recent developments in analytical modelling of fretting wear contact

Contact Geometry Adaptation in Fretting Wear: A Constructive Review

Fretting is a special type of wear, which appears at the contact interface between two solids subjected to constant normal load and periodic tangential forces. Although most studies on fretting have been executed experimentally, some approaches for simulating fretting wear have also been introduced during the last decades. In particular, fretting wear analysis is concerned with the evolution of the surface profiles of the contacting bodies due to wear, and its modeling was executed using numerical, finite-element, semi-analytical, and analytical methods, including the method of dimensionality reduction. In the present review we discuss recent analytical results on fretting wear contact geometry adaptation.TU Berlin, Open-Access-Mittel – 202
