| Micromechanics of Contact and Beyond
Surfaces in contact and relative motion transmit power and motion; however, the interface formed by contacting surfaces often governs the life of a machine system. Over the years, we have developed several contact mechanics theories and numerical methods, as well as a comprehensive contact fatigue life prediction methodology, for components under different relative motions. This presentation will review our recent breakthrough in the micromechanics theory of contact and our recent contact mechanics and lubrication work, along with our approaches on issues related to surface topography, material inclusions, defects, reinforcements, surface treatments, and electrical current passing through a contact interface.
