STRESS CONCENTRATION DUE TO A SPHERICAL VOID UNDER HERTZIAN CONTACT

The present paper presents the method of estimating the stress concentrator effect of a spherical void from an elastic half-space. An essential part consists in estimation of FEM error by finding the contact pressure from half-plane using an analytical method. Next, the stress concentrator effect...
