  2. Contact area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_area

    Contact area may depend on the normal force between the two objects due to deformation. [1] The contact area depends on the geometry of the contacting bodies, the load, and the material properties. The contact area between the two parallel cylinders is a narrow rectangle. Two, non-parallel cylinders have an elliptical contact area, unless the ...

  3. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    When two bodies with rough surfaces are pressed against each other, the true contact area formed between the two bodies, , is much smaller than the apparent or nominal contact area . The mechanics of contacting rough surfaces are discussed in terms of normal contact mechanics and static frictional interactions. [ 29 ]

  4. Frictional contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frictional_contact_mechanics

    Classical results for a true frictional contact problem concern the papers by F.W. Carter (1926) and H. Fromm (1927). They independently presented the creep versus creep force relation for a cylinder on a plane or for two cylinders in steady rolling contact using Coulomb’s dry friction law (see below). [5]

    The generation of a bicylinder Calculating the volume of a bicylinder. A bicylinder generated by two cylinders with radius r has the volume =, and the surface area [1] [6] =.. The upper half of a bicylinder is the square case of a domical vault, a dome-shaped solid based on any convex polygon whose cross-sections are similar copies of the polygon, and analogous formulas calculating the volume ...

  7. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    In more generality, by the same principle, the volume of any cylinder is the product of the area of a base and the height. For example, an elliptic cylinder with a base having semi-major axis a, semi-minor axis b and height h has a volume V = Ah, where A is the area of the base ellipse (= π ab).

  8. Thermal contact conductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_contact_conductance

    A temperature drop is observed at the interface between the two surfaces in contact. This phenomenon is said to be a result of a thermal contact resistance existing between the contacting surfaces. Thermal contact resistance is defined as the ratio between this temperature drop and the average heat flow across the interface. [1]

  9. Cylindrical joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylindrical_joint

    A cylindrical joint is a two-degrees-of-freedom kinematic pair used in mechanisms. [1] Cylindrical joints constrain two bodies to a single axis while allowing them to rotate about and slide along that axis. This can be pictured by an unsecured axle mounted on a chassis, as it may freely rotate and translate. [2]
