Roughness models for particle adhesion

15 Jul 2024 | Publications

The effects of different surface roughness models on a previously developed van der Waals adhesion model were examined. The van der Waals adhesion model represented surface roughness with a distribution of asperities. It was found that the constraints used todefine the asperity distribution on...
