Abstract

In this chapter, we study the axisymmetric problem of the so-called JKR-type adhesive indentation of a transversely isotropic elastic half-space. Explicit formulas are given for self-similar indenters. In the case of a paraboloidal indenter, the Johnson–Kendall–Roberts (JKR) theory is considered in detail. Approximate solutions are presented in the case of an annular area of contact.
