Abstract
It is relatively unusual to encounter ‘complete’ contacts in a mechanical engineering assembly. Designers intuitively appreciate that having sharp-edged precision components fastened together may spell trouble because they recognise that the state of stress is very high near such features.

Notes
- 1.
Note that, regardless of the values of the multipliers \(K_I^0\), \(K_{\text {II}}^0\), there will always be a sufficiently small radius where the symmetric solution dominates the problem. It does not follow that, when \(r>d_0\) the second term in a series expansion necessarily controls the behaviour. Higher order terms may have an influence ‘before’ (meaning at smaller values of the radius) the second term in the in-plane expansion.
