Abstract

An elastic inhomogeneous coating is considered for which a simplified deformation model is proposed in the framework of the concept of an asymptotically thin layer. Based on such a model for an inhomogeneous coating, a solution of the contact problem in the presence of intermolecular interaction is constructed and the wear kinetics for the thrust sliding bearing is calculated. It is shown that the pattern of the inhomogeneity of the coating can have a significant effect on its stress-strain state and wear kinetics.
