Title: A Limited Study of the Effects of Contact Normal Force, Contact Geometry, and Wipe Distance on the Contact Resistance of Gold-Plated Contacts
Abstract: It is shown that wipe distances of less than 10 mils produce stable contact resistance values at a normal force of 120 g for a hemisphere-flat geometry, even on dust-covered surfaces. An ellipse-flat geometry is less effective, although effective wiping action is observed at distances less than 20 mils. A cylinder-flat geometry shows marginal wiping effectiveness.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
