An approximate model for the adhesive contact of rough viscoelastic surfaces
Surface roughness is known to easily suppress the adhesion of elastic surfaces. Here, a simple model for the contact of viscoelastic rough surfaces with significant levels of adhesion is presented. This approach is derived from our previous model (Barthel, E.; Haiat, G. Langmuir 2002, 18, 9362) for...

| Zusammenfassung: | Surface roughness is known to easily suppress the adhesion of elastic surfaces. Here, a simple model for the contact of viscoelastic rough surfaces with significant levels of adhesion is presented. This approach is derived from our previous model (Barthel, E.; Haiat, G. Langmuir 2002, 18, 9362) for the adhesive contact of viscoelastic spheres. For simplicity, a simple loading/unloading history (infinitely fast loading and constant pull-out velocity) is assumed. The model provides approximate analytical expressions for the asperity response and exhibits the full viscoelastic adhesive contact phenomenology such as stress relaxation inside the contact zone and creep at the contact edges. Combining this model with a Greenwood-Williamson statistical modeling of rough surfaces, we propose a quantitative assessment of the adhesion to rough viscoelastic surfaces. We show that moderate viscoelasticity efficiently restores adhesion on rough surfaces over a wide dynamic range |
