Abstract
The upper bound technique is adopted to investigate the effect of angular velocity on the load required to compress a circular hollow cylinder between rough parallel plates. The kinematically admissible velocity field accounts for the asymptotic behaviour of the actual velocity field in a vicinity of the friction surface. The theoretical solution is illustrated by numerical examples for different geometrical parameters and friction factors. In particular, the variations in work rate, torsion moment and compression force with the dimensionless angular velocity are shown.
