A finite element analysis for simulating the contact performance between two micro-rough surfaces is proposed. The numerical characterization of Gaussian or non-Gaussian rough surfaces is introduced to lay the foundation of this analysis. Then bottom up solid modeling and hexahedral meshing lead to an accurate finite element model. The normal deformation
nominal contact pressure
real contact area
contact pressure distribution of the interface under different normal loads are discussed and their loading/unloading characteristics are investigated to reveal the mechanical behavior laws
which provides a new approach to predict or evaluate the performances of micro-rough interfaces.
