What is Contact Mechanics?
“[The theory of contact mechanics] is
concerned with the stresses and
deformation which arise when the
surfaces of two solid bodies are
brought into contact.”
Professor Johnsson
Two kinds of contact

Conforming contacts


The two surfaces fit exactly or closely
together without deformation
Non-conforming contact

The surfaces, or one of the two
surfaces, deforms when there is a
contact area in between them.
Derivation: Boussinesq and Cerruti

Hertz Theory of Elastic Contact

Assumptions:

The radii of curvature of the contacting bodies
are large compared with the radius of the
circle of contact.

The dimensions of each body are large
compared to the radius of the circle of
contact.

The contacting bodies are in frictionless
contact.

The surfaces in contact are continuous and
nonconforming.
Examples

Focus on two examples:
1.
2.
Rigid spherical indenter pushing to deformable flat
surface.
Deformable sphere contacting rigid plate.
(2)
(1)
QuickTime™ and a
decompressor
are needed to see this picture.
Equations to be Used
(1) – where R’ is the radius of the rigid sphere and
RS is the radius of the deformable plate
(2) – where δ is the vertical distance the point where the load is
applied moves and a is the contact area radius determined
1/ 3
by the equation: a  3 P  R

4  E*

(3) – h is the original distance between a point on the rigid sphere
and the deformable plate before load application.

(4) – These are the equations of
displacement derived
previously
(5) – This states that the translation of the point of load
application equals the surface displacement of the
plate and sphere plus the original distance
between the surfaces.
