Near edge tractions for a rounded quarter-plane pressed into an elastically similar half-plane

Asymptotic forms are a useful way of representing the state of stress at a contact edge, allowing us to characterise the region in which cracks nucleate. The asymptotes must match the behaviour implied by the local geometry. In this paper, we study the behaviour of a flat contact with a circular arc...
