The use of asymptotic solutions for the characterisation of the states of stress relevant to several contact problems is introduced. The relevance of the proposed formulations to engineering applications as a correlation device for contact fatigue is discussed, and their application to the ‘sharpening up’ of numerically obtained contact stress solutions presented.
