Abstract

The most important contribution to rubber friction on rough surfaces is the so-called hysteresis. The excitation of the viscoelastic material is induced by the surface asperities. Hysteresis friction originates from the internal energy dissipation. Since the roughness occurs over a wide range of length scales, in this work a multiscale FEM approach is developed to solve the problem with acceptable computational costs.A split of the surface in macroscopic and microscopic parts is carried out via a decomposition of the power spectral density. The coupling between the scales is performed by passing of homogenized, velocity- and pressure-dependent coefficients of friction. The values are gained from frictionless calculations on the micro scale. The proposed multiscale FEM approach is analyzed and proven on an artificial sinusoidal surface. Finally, the approach is applied to a measured rough surface profile showing good agreement with experimental data for different rubber materials.
