The outcome of experimental research on a group of dry bearing materials carried out under small oscillation conditi ons and using a test rig designed and made at Gdansk University of Technology inspired the decision to find out if the stiffness of test head elements in fluenced the generated results. Therefore, a computer model utilising finite elements was devised and used to simulate the workings of the test head. The mode l enabled full control of the head’s geometry, and loading and boundary conditions at every stage of simulation. Moreover, the simulation includes the preparation of test head elements, fixings, and the specimen loading, and execut es the displacement of the counter-face during full-cycle reciprocating motion. Finally, the results of computer simulation are compared with those produced by experimental testing.
