Contact-Stress Analysis of Elastic-Viscoelastic Interface Conditions.

Abstract

The sliding contact (frictional) behavior of sintered alpha silicon carbide (SASC) was studied over the range of room temperature to 1400 deg C. The results strongly indicate that a nonelastic mechanism, probably a viscous mechanism, is contributing to the contact behavior of SASC at elevated temperatures. In addition, zirconia, which does not form a viscous layer, was studied for comparison purposes. (Author)
