Transient and Steady Sliding Friction of Elastomers: Impact of Vertical Lift

The sliding friction of elastomers has been investigated numerically and theoretically for the line contact between a cylindrical rigid indenter and a “frictionless” Kelvin–Voigt foundation. The onset of sliding under an abrupt increase in the drive velocity has been simulated with different boundar...
