(From the foreword.) The aim of the two meetings was to emphasize how suitable analysis can lead to a better appreciation of the factors influencing tribological processes. Several areas were covered, so that an overview is gained of how contact mechanics can contribute to understanding and perhaps lead to the transfer of ideas across fields. In the analysis of contact problems both analytical and numerical solutions are considered. How to carry out numerical contact stress calculations efficiently and reliably is one area of importance dealt with. Situations treated range from low pressure rubber contacts to the extreme pressures encountered in metal machining. Each illustrates particular problems of analysis.
