Experimental Investigation of the Elastic–Plastic Contact Area and Static Friction of a Sphere on Flat

Abstract: An experimental investigation is presented to evaluate recently published models for the contact and sliding inception of a deformable sphere loaded against a smooth rigid flat. The effects of the normal load on the contact area, junction growth, and the static friction force in the elastic–plastic contact regime are presented. Very good correlation is found between the predicted and measured contact area. A dramatic decrease of the static friction coefficient with increasing normal loading is observed, simila… Show more

“…Sintered carbides were used as rigid flat specimens. Axial compression tests of softer specimens were performed at different normal loads, up to 1000 N, with load increment of 100 N. During copper specimens testing, in addition, for load smaller than 200 N, load increment was 20 N. Similar to works [18,19,20] load was applied for 30 seconds and removed. Normal force was applied by bolted joint of 65 mm diameter and 0.55 mm pitch.…”

“…Although spherical contact problem has been studied extensively earlier (see for example [6]), experimental research of deformable sphere contact with a hard flat were carried out also lately which is connected presumably with development of measuring equipment In works [18,19,20] the residual contact trace was measured non-in situ. Etsion et al [18] analysed normal contact between copper spherical specimens (with diameters of 3, 5, 10 and 15 mm) and rigid flat samples from hardened steels and sapphire.…”
