In many instances of mechanical interaction between two materials,
the physical
contact affects only the outermost surface layer, with little
discernible influence on the bulk of the material. The resultant
high pressures in these localised regimes can induce surface
structural changes such as deformation, phase transformation and
amorphization. The understanding of these physical phenomena is
critical in the study of common 'contact loading' processes such as
scratching, grinding, milling, polishing, indentation testing,
wear, friction and erosion.
