Friction in lubricated soft-on-hard, hard-on-soft and soft-on-soft sliding contacts

P Sadowski, S Stupkiewicz - Tribology International, 2019 - Elsevier
Friction in lubricated soft contacts is examined using a ball-on-disc tribometer with the focus
on the effect of configuration. In the soft-on-hard and hard-on-soft configurations, one of the …

Substrate and fluid film mechanics in rolling-sliding soft contact tribology

B Cartwright, Y Xu, JR Stokes - Tribology International, 2024 - Elsevier
The wealth of soft contact tribological (SCT) investigations utilising ball-on-disc tribometers
assume Hertzian contact model to describe substrate deformation. We hypothesise this is …

Lubricated steady sliding of a rigid sphere on a soft elastic substrate: hydrodynamic friction in the Hertz limit

H Wu, N Moyle, A Jagota, CY Hui - Soft Matter, 2020 - pubs.rsc.org
Lubricated sliding on soft elastic substrates occurs in a variety of natural and technological
