We show by numerical simulation that elastic deformation lowers the relative contact area at which contact patches percolate in comparison to traditional approaches to seals. Elastic deformation also suppresses leakage through contacts even far away from the percolation threshold. Reliable estimates for leakage can be obtained by combining Persson's contact mechanics theory with a slightly modified version of Bruggeman's effective-medium solution of the Reynolds equation.}, keywords = {J (WoSType)}, cin = {JSC / PGI-1}, ddc = {550}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)JSC-20090406 / I:(DE-Juel1)PGI-1-20110106}, pnm = {Scientific Computing (FUEK411) / Grundlagen für zukünftige Informationstechnologien (FUEK412) / 411 - Computational Science and Mathematical Methods (POF2-411)}, pid = {G:(DE-Juel1)FUEK411 / G:(DE-Juel1)FUEK412 / G:(DE-HGF)POF2-411}, shelfmark = {Physics, Multidisciplinary}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, UT = {WOS:000306342000015}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevLett.108.244301}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/20217}, }
