THE STRESS CALCULATION IN THE FRICTIONALLY SLIPPING

CONTACT BETWEEN A RIGID CYLINDER AND A HALF PLANE
FENG Jian-jun , *TAN Yuan-qiang

Abstract:

When frictionally slipping contact occurs between a cylinder and a plane, the accurately analytic

solutions of the stress field in the contacting body with the effect of the tangential stress on the normal stress have
not been solved. This work derives the expressions of the stresses, and analyzes the stress distributions in the
plane based on Buflers solutions. The conclusions indicate that there exists the maximum tensile stress and the
maximum compressive stress in the contacting surface; and that the maximum tensile stress occurs at the edge of
the dragging side. Therefore, if the failure of the contacting plane is induced by the tensile or the compressive
stresses, it may firstly occur in the contacting surface; and the mode-crack generation and propagation may
firstly take place at the edge of the dragging side. The maximums of both the principal shear stress and the Von
Mises equivalent stress (when the frictional coefficient is small) occur inside the contacting body, and they all
exist in the leading side. Therefore, the plastic inception may firstly take place inside the contacting body, and
then extend to the contacting surface. Meanwhile, the frictionally slipping contact between the cylinder and the
plane is simulated with the finite element method. The curves of the stress distributions obtained by the finite

element method are compared with that by the proposed theoretic method. The results show that the
characteristics of the stress distributions obtained by both methods are basically consistent. Those conclusions will
provide the basis for the study of the engineering contact problems.
Key words: frictionally slipping contact; equivalent stress; principal stress; contact pressure; shear traction
