Derivation and analysis of a generalized standard model for contact, friction and wear

• A model for mechanical contact including friction, wear and heat generation is proposed. By defining an internal state variable for the wear process, a generalized standard model for contact, friction and wear is derived from the principle of virtual power and the fundamental laws of thermodynamics. Within the frame of the generalized standard model some specific constitutive models are presented. For instance, a free energy corresponding to an extension of Signorini's unilateral contact conditions to include the wear process at the interface and having a linear tangential compliance between the relative tangential displacement and the tangential contact traction is suggested. Furthermore, a dual pseudo-potential with a friction and wear limit criterion in agreement with Coulomb's law of friction Archard's law of wear is given. In order to study existence and uniqueness questions, this pair of free energy and dual pseudo-potential is analysed in a one point elastic quasi-static contact problem with two degrees of freedom and thermal effects neglected. The so-called rate problem is solved.
