Critical length scale controls adhesive wear mechanisms

Jean-François Molinari, Ramin Aghababaei, Derek Warner

The adhesive wear process remains one of the least understood areas of mechanics. While it has long been established that adhesive wear is a direct result of contacting surface asperities, an agreed upon understanding of how contacting asperities lead to w ...

On the debris-level origins of adhesive wear

Jean-François Molinari, Ramin Aghababaei, Derek Warner

Every contacting surface inevitably experiences wear. Predicting the exact amount of material loss due to wear relies on empirical data and cannot be obtained from any physical model. Here, we analyze and quantify wear at the most fundamental level, i.e., ...

An interatomic pair potential with tunable intrinsic ductility

William Curtin, Derek Warner, Varun Parameswaran Rajan

A family of interatomic potentials is constructed for which the intrinsic ductility can be tuned systematically. Specifically, the elastic constants and critical energy release rate for Griffith cleavage, G(Ic), are held constant, while the critical energy ...
