How long can your product withstand mechanical contact?
Surface wear is inevitable where contact occurs. Luckily, it can be simulated.
In SIMULIA Abaqus, you can simulate wear accumulation and understand your product’s lifespan. In this example, Mikko applied Archard’s wear model to examine surface erosion over time. This simulation visualizes how contact conditions lead to material loss, helping engineers optimize the product further.
