Description

Explore the fundamentals of solid body mechanics with Introduction to Contact Mechanics from the Springer Mechanical Engineering Series. This technical text covers the essential relationship between contact mechanics, fracture, hardness, and elasticity. Readers will gain a deep understanding of material properties, starting with general fracture mechanics and the specific fracture of brittle solids. The book provides detailed descriptions of indentation stress fields for both elastic and elastic-plastic contact scenarios. It also examines the formation of Hertzian cone cracks in brittle materials and subsurface damage in ductile materials. This resource is designed to clarify the meaning of hardness and provide a comprehensive look at how materials behave under contact stress.
