Simulating wear under cyclic loading by a minimization approach

[摘要] A new method is developed to determine the asymptotic state reached by a solid continuum subjected to wear and submitted to a cyclic loading. The main idea is to express the stabilized state as the solution of a minimization problem. This approach is applied to the wear problem of a half-plane in contact with a cyclically moving indenter.
