The influence of punch blunting on the elastic indentation response

Elastic solutions of a family of axisymmetric problems concerning frictionless contact between a rigid punch and a semi-infinite substrate are considered using the method of Green and Zerna and of Collins. The analysis is relevant to the interpretation of experimental results in materials indentatio...
