Summary

∙ Available numerical tool accounting for macroscopic peudo-wear mechanisms ∙ Convergence + low CPU features ∙ Possibility of experimental measure for abradable identification ∙ Wear + clearance opening → New phenomena compared to the usual

unilateral contact framework

∙ Detection of unexpected high levels of vibration at critical velocities in

agreement with first experimental results

Future work

∙ Addition of friction ∙ More contact and wear interfaces (∼ more CB interface nodes) ∙ More realistic plastic constitutive laws ∙ New scenarios of interaction
