Abstract
A program for the computer simulation of the friction of two rough surfaces has been developed. The program makes it possible to predict the coefficient of friction and limiting contact pressures, which restrict the range of normal wear, for friction units with and without fairly soft coatings. The computer model has been tested using a comparison of the results of numerical simulation with the experimental data. The results can be used to predict the tribological characteristics of rough surfaces.
