On the Use of Foam Rubber for Sealing Applications Tribol. Lett. (IF 3.2) Pub Date : 2024-03-11
Abstract O-rings made from foam rubber are often used in sealing applications. Foam rubber have low (macroscopic) elastic modulus \(E_0\) resulting in a low nominal contact pressure when squeezed against a countersurface. In most cases the foam rubber is covered by a thin surface film with the effective elastic modulus \(E_1 > E_0\) . We show that the nominal contact pressure may not be high enough

A New Fudge Factor for Persson’s Theory of Purely Normal Elastic Rough Surface Contact Tribol. Lett. (IF 3.2) Pub Date : 2024-03-05
Abstract After more than two decades of development, Persson’s theory has become one of the dominantly used theoretical tools to analyze the interaction between a nominally flat rough surface and a rigid flat. The original theory (Persson in J. Chem. Phys. 115(8):3840–3861, 2001) tends to overestimate and underestimate the relative contact area and strain energy, respectively, for linear elastic purely

Control of Static Friction by Designing Grooves on Friction Surface Tribol. Lett. (IF 3.2) Pub Date : 2024-01-17
Abstract This study numerically investigated the friction of viscoelastic objects with grooves. A 3D viscoelastic block with grooves on a rigid substrate is slowly pushed from the lateral side under uniform pressure on the top surface. The local friction force at the interface between the block and the substrate obeys Amontons’ law. Numerical results obtained using the finite element method reveal
