Torsion of viscoelastic spheres in contact

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2498348





The paper starts from the general contact theory done by Hertz and others. It is assumed that there is no coupling between the actions of normal contact force and twisting couple, and that they can be analysed separately. Thus, the stresses and strains resulting from the load components can also be analysed independently. The stress is the sum of elastic and viscous stresses. The viscous stress is the same as in elastic constitutive eqation but only with other constants. The torsional friction for a viscoelastic sphere is given and compared with experiments. A good prediction is obtained.
