The main objective of this thesis is to obtain a better understanding of adhesive contacts and their frictional behaviour. Both natural and man-made surfaces are rough over a wide range of length scales. Tribological studies of rough surfaces need to account for the interactions between these asperities. In this work a sim- ple atomistically...

A wedge-shaped failure mechanism occurs when a composite ply in a laminate is loaded under transverse compression. Because of this, a typical failure model for tensile load cases is not straightforward applicable for compressive load cases. In this paper, a method is described to approximate the compressive behavior using a vertical crack plane....
