Abstract

Wave generation by the back-and-forth motion of a rigid slider is discussed for three fundamental motions of the slider: (A) linear motion on a flat surface, (B) torsional rotation and (C) piston motion on the cylindrical surface. The induced frictional shear stress changes its direction due to the back-and-forth motion of the slider. It is found that the wave energy in the case of the cylindrical slider depends on the slider frequency. Further, the slider on the flat surface produces the largest wave energy among the three motions and the torsional rotation of the cylindrical slider produces the least energy. The time variation of the surface/interface displacement is also discussed and it is found that the displacement response does not synchronize with the motion of the cylindrical slider.
