Abstract
A simple method for using the JKR model to determine interfacial adhesion between two ideal rough surfaces is demonstrated for individual asperity-asperity and asperity-flat contacts both in air and in water. The model takes into account the effect of a modified contact area at separation due to viscoelastic effects. The equilibrium version of the model significantly underestimates the measured adhesion, whereas the viscoelastic version of the model is much closer to the measured data. The asperity-flat geometry used with the viscoelastic version of the model seems to fit the experimental results best. This was thought to be due to the unlikely occurrence of direct asperity-asperity contacts. Instead, it would seem that the asperities have a far higher chance of fitting between each other on opposing surfaces, leading to correspondingly higher pull-off forces measured on separation. Many possible extensions to the roughness model described here may be made, allowing a much-improved understanding of the contact mechanics between two rough surfaces.
