Interrelation of the tribological processes and the features of Stoneley's surface wave propagation in absorbing medium

摘要

Based on a model of propagation of Stoneley's surface waves in a friction unit with consideration of their absorption, the dependence of friction force on tribological parameters was derived. The friction force was shown to decrease with increase in velocity. It was found to be nearly linearly proportional to the contour pressure and roughness. The surface layer, through which Stoneley's waves propagate, performs the anti-frictional function.
