While </span>friction forces can be reduced by surface texturing, selection of pattern dimensions is challenging due to the highly variable </span>elastic modulus<span> of the skin. This work proposes an empirical approach for the evaluation of the skin elasticity through surface transition from asperity to full contact state. To highlight the contact transition, two textures with evenly distributed identical micro asperities, but varying density, were moulded with several grades of silicone rubber. Dynamic </span></span>friction coefficient measurements were performed during finger pad sliding against the textured samples with a range of normal loads up to 5 N. A combination of analytical and numerical contact models is used to explain the observed friction behaviour, estimate the development of contact area and calculate the effective elastic modulus of the skin at the micro-scale. Low density textures clearly indicate the transition to the full contact state, which is reflected in friction coefficient development, while high density textures remain in an </span>asperity contact<span><span> state, with significantly lower friction values. The effective Young's modulus is hereby estimated in the range of 0.2–0.5 MPa. Observed </span>frictional behaviour<span> is explained by the change in the apparent and real contact areas. The presented approach allows to study the influence of individual surface parameters on effective skin elastic modulus, which is essential for the development of functional surfaces with improved tactile perception.</span></span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":38233,"journal":{"name":"Biotribology","volume":"18 ","pages":"Article 100097"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.biotri.2019.100097","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44854388","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
