Abstract A finite element-based method is presented for simulating both the fretting wear and the evolution of fretting variables with number of wear cycles in a cylinder-on-flat fretting configuration for application to aeroengine transmission components. The method is based on a modified version of Archard’s equation and is implemented within a commercial finite element code. Fretting tests are employed to determine the coefficient of friction (COF) and the wear coefficient applicable to the contact configuration and loading conditions. The wear simulation technique is incremental in nature and the total simulation time has been minimised via mesh and increment size optimisation. The predicted wear profiles have been compared with profilometer measurements of fretting test scars.
