Sumario:A new model for studying the kinetics of fatigue wear of a viscoelastic coating bonded to a rigid substrate is proposed. The fatigue mechanism is due to the cyclic interaction of the coating with a rough counterbody, which is modeled by a periodic system of smooth indenters. The study includes the solution of the problem of sliding contact of the indenter at a constant velocity along the viscoelastic coating, the calculation of stresses taking into account the mutual effect, and study of the process of damage accumulation in the material. The calculation of the damage function of the surface layer was carried out using the reduced stress criterion. Assuming the possibility of summation of accumulated damage, two processes were considered: delamination of surface layers of the coating and continuous fracture of the surface by the fatigue mechanism. The effect of the sliding velocity and viscoelastic properties of the material on the damage accumulation and the coating wear rate was analyzed. Two types of load, constant and stochastically varying, were used in modeling and analysis. It was found that the rate of fatigue wear of the coating increased and then became constant.
