The frictionless double receding contact problem for two functionally graded (FG) layers
pressed by a uniformly distributed load is addressed in this paper. The gradation in the …

This paper investigates the contact vibration between a rigid spherical indenter and a half-
space with hysteretic damping within the framework of the couple stress theory. Firstly, the …

The main motivation for the present work is to provide an improved description of the
response of Functionally Graded (FG) structures under a spherical indenter, considering …

The present paper deals with a finite-element-based static loading–unloading analysis of a
functionally graded rough surface contact with fractal characteristics. Two different gradation …

The present paper considers the influence of yield strength on static and dynamic behaviour
of cylindrical contact interface. The semi-cylinder is assumed to be in plane stress condition …

This paper describes a new fractal contact model for a rough three-dimensional friction
surface considering scale dependence. The model predicts the total contact area as a …

The accurate calculation of gear contact stress is a significant parameter to judge the contact
strength. It is the precondition for the investigation of gear's dynamic characteristics, fault …
