A lubricated wear model for stochastic rough surface in sliding contacts is presented. In this model, the visco-elastic characteristic of the solid, the effects of surface roughness profiles, hardness of materials and operating conditions are included. The reasonableness of the model is proved by comparing calculated values with the test results on a ring-on-block test machine. They coincide well...
