Partial Contact of a Rigid Multisinusoidal Wavy Surface with an Elastic Half-Plane

الملخص EN

The interaction effects, arising at partial contact of rigid multisinusoidal wavy surface with an elastic half-plane, are considered in the assumption of continuous contact configuration.

The analytical exact and asymptotic solutions for periodic and nonperiodic contact problems for wavy indenters are derived.

Continuous contact configuration, appearing at small ratios of amplitude to wavelength for cosine harmonics, leads to continuous oscillatory contact pressure distribution and oscillatory relations between mean pressure and a contact length.

Comparison of periodic and nonperiodic solutions shows that long-range elastic interaction between asperities does not depend on a number of cosine wavelengths.
