Abstract
Since a coated rough surface can be modeled as a collection of many spherical coated asperities, in order to understand the coated rough surface contact, it is required to first model a single coated spherical contact. This review paper presents a comprehensive summary of the coated spherical contact modeling and its experimental validation that was done mostly by the authors’ group at the Technion and published in the relevant literature. The coated spherical contact is considered under two loading modes, namely pure normal loading and combined normal and tangential loading. Based on the normally loaded spherical contact results, a coated rough surface contact modeling is presented. In addition, experimental results that show an interesting correlation with the coated spherical modeling are briefly discussed. Finally, some limited work on the bilayer/multilayer coated spherical contact is introduced.
