Validity of Amontons’ law for run-in short-cut aramid fiber reinforced elastomers: The effect of epoxy coated fibers

Abstract Friction between two contacting surfaces is studied extensively. One of the known friction theories is Amontons’ law which states that the friction force is proportional to the normal force. However, Amontons’ law has been found to be invalid for elastomers. In the present study, the validi...
