Surface energy and the contact of elastic solids
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of surface energy on the contact between elastic solids is discussed and an analytical model for its effect upon the contact size and the force of adhesion between two lightly loaded spherical solid surfaces is presented.

Observations of Viscoelastic Behaviour of an Elastohydrodynamic Lubricant Film
K L Johnson,A. D. Roberts +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a rolling contact experiment has been devised with the object of making direct observations of viscoelastic behaviour of elastohydrodynamic lubricant films, and a 'point contact' disk machine has been used which permits the axes of the disks to be either tilted or skewed through small angles relative to each other.
