Adhesive wear and interaction of tangentially loaded micro-contacts

Jean-François Molinari, Son-Jonathan Pham-Ba, Tobias Brink

Current engineering wear models are often based on empirical parameters rather than built upon physical considerations. Here, we look for a physical description of adhesive wear at the microscale, at which the interaction between two surfaces comes down to ...
