Abstract
The aim of this paper is to clear up the various concepts involved in the adherence of solids, and to discuss the manner how surface effects, geometry, elasticity and rheological effects are entangled. Adhesive contact of elastic solids is firmly established on the basis of thermodynamics, theory of elasticity or fracture mechanics. Extension to viscoelastic solids is straightforward using fracture mechanics, and experimental evidence is given. Tack force, environmental effects and stick-slip are discussed. Adherence of metals is reviewed, and particular attention is paid to cold welding, micro-contacts, and high temperature effects. The mode of action of adhesives is briefly examined.
