Frictional slippage of elastomeric disks compressed between rigid platens and subjected to torsion
RH Plaut, DA Dillard - International Journal of Solids and Structures, 2024 - Elsevier
A new analysis is applied to compressible, linearly elastic disks that are compressed by flat
rigid platens. The disks are not bonded to the platens and Coulomb (Amonton) friction is …
