32. In ref 23 Feng showed that μ > 1 the point where the tensile stress reaches its negative peak coincides well with the edge of the flattened area where the gap between the detaching bodies seems to be almost constant, while for small values of μ the flattened area cannot be clearly identified.
33. 1/2 is used to indicate the radial position with respect to the contact center. ρ is the dimensional radial position. At μ = 0.01 r is 0.635 (Feng's personal communication).
