Contact Mechanics in Tribology

Contact Mechanics studies the stress and strain states of bodies in contact; This book investigates a variety of contact problems: discrete contact of rough surfaces, the effect of imperfect elasticity and mechanical inhomogeneity of contacting bodies, models of friction and wear, changes in contact characteristics during the wear process, etc.

Mecanica de contact studiaza starile de stres si tensiune ale corpurilor in contact; Aceasta carte investigheaza o varietate de probleme de contact: contactul discret al suprafetelor aspre, efectul elasticitatii imperfecte si al omogenitatii mecanice a corpurilor de contact, modelele de frecare si uzura, modificari ale caracteristicilor de contact in timpul procesului de uzura etc.
