Abstract

This Note presents a computational technique for simulating friction-induced wear in a tribology experiment on a plan/plan, ring-on-disc contact configuration. The boundary element method results in modest computing times and facilitates the mesh modifications used for tracking the wear profile evolution. A typical wear simulation result is presented and discussed.
