Abstract:Molecular dynamics simulation with embedded atom method/Finnis–Sinclair potential function was utilised to study the friction properties of the friction-triggering process at the mesoscopic scale. The sliding friction process of a spherical probe with different diameters on the surface of a single-crystal aluminum matrix was simulated and the influences of sliding friction on the atomic behaviour of the surface under different contact conditions were analysed. The relationship between contact force and frictio… Show more
