Hi,

 

I want to simulate fretting wear on a cylindrical roller bearing in HyperWorks.

 

Example: McColl, I. R., et al. (2004). 'Finite element simulation and experimental validation of fretting wear.' Wear 256(11–12): 1114-1127.

 

Could you please help me how to proceed?

 

Thanks

Arjun

    Hi

    Unfortunately, currently in Altair solver portfolio, there is not option to simulate fretting wear, or wearing like the Archard approach.
