A finite element investigation of the deformations, forces, stress formations, and energy lossses in elasto-plastic sliding contacts

This work presents the results of Finite Element Analyses (FEA) used to simulate sliding contact in two (2D) and three dimensions (3D) between two interfering elasto-plastic bodies. Cylinders are used to model sliding contact in 2D, simplified by the assumption of plane strain. Sliding is studied be...
