Although contact problems with friction have received considerable attention in recent years, analytical as well as experimental limitations have tended to obscure some of their essential features. All the experimental techniques employed in the past lacked either required sensitivity or adequate spatial resolution for local measurements of deformation near the contact surface. Further, most techniques also did not allow the use of prototype material which is crucial for investigation of contact stress problems with friction. In the present study, a relatively new experimental method, which has been developed at VPI & SU, is employed: high-sensitivity moiré interferometry. Using a clearance pin-joint model made of prototype structural material, Aluminum 7071-T6, studies on frictional phenomena between the pin and plate are conducted to provide a comprehensive treatment of the following subjects: slip-stick phenomena, variation of contact zone, distribution of frictional force at the contact region, effects of frictional shear stress on stress concentration, and identification of slip amplitude. Experimental techniques and algorithms of analysis necessary for the research are further developed. The results showed a strong influence of friction, including significant differences in the load-increasing and load-decreasing phases. / Ph. D.
