Analytical Modeling of an Oblique Edge Crack in Rolling Contact Fatigue

Surface cracks represent a frequent cause of damage and even failure in rolling contacts, observed in gears, cams, rails, and so on. In the literature, different approaches have been applied to describe the crack behaviour by means of Fracture Mechanics parameters, such as the stress intensity facto...
