Abstract
The author calculates the area of contact between two rough flat surfaces on the supposition that the normal law of distribution holds for the heights of the roughnesses. He determines the nominal stress at which the deformations of the roughnesses can be regarded as independent. He shows that in real cases of contact, the deformation of the roughnesses of polymer surfaces can be regarded as elastic.
