On the Motion of an Elastic Body Rolling/sliding on an Elastic Substrate

Abstract

The three-dimensional evolutionary problem of rolling/sliding of a linear elastic body on a linear elastic substrate is studied. The inertial properties of the body regarded as rigid are accounted for. By employing an asymptotic analysis, it is shown that the process can be divided into two phases: transient and quasistationary. An expression for the frictional force as a function of the externally applied forces and moments, and inertial properties of the body is derived. For an ellipsoid rolling/sliding on a linear elastic substrate, numerical results for the frictional force distribution, slip/adhesion subareas, and the evolution of the slip velocity are given.
