Roughness-Induced Adhesive Hysteresis in Self-Affine Fractal Surfaces

It is known that in the presence of surface roughness, adhesion can lead to distinct paths of loading and unloading for the area–load and penetration–load relationships, thus causing hysteretic loss. Here, we investigate the effects that the surface roughness parameters have on such adhesive hystere...
