Analysing the accuracy of asymptotic approximations in incomplete contact problems

The error incurred in the representation of the contact pressure at the edges of incomplete contacts by first order asymptotes is treated, and the maximum value of the relative error found for a range of geometries, both symmetric and non-symmetric. For a symmetric power-law geometry, we identify wh...
