Abstract

The contact between cubic profiles with continuous relative curvatures has been analyzed and solutions in closed form were obtained for both symmetric and non-symmetric conditions. Analytical solutions have allowed a complete parametric study to be performed, showing the effects of the gradient of relative curvature. The accuracy of approximate 'equivalent' Hertzian solutions has been verified.
