Abstract

Surface roughness morphology seriously restricts workpiece interface contact performance, and therefore it is necessary to remove the fog of relationships between morphology parameters and contact stress (CS). To study the issue, use correlation analysis and BP network to set up correlation mapping model, thereafter introduce global sensitivity analysis Morris (qualitative) and Sobol (quantitative) to get “main influence parameters (MIP)”. Afterwards, construct a optimal nonlinear regression model between MIP and CS in line with complete polynomial and the idea of permutation and combination. Finally, analyze MIP influence path on CS from statistical path analysis. The paper main contributions are as follows: 1. From the perspective of theoretical analysis, a reasonable method to select parameters about CS performance characterization is proposed to avoid the empirical selection errors; 2. Correlation relationships bridge is built between MIP and CS, with quantitative influence way of parameters on contact stress studied and clarified.
