Abstract
The asymptotic nature of the elastic field is studied at the point of transition from frictional contact to frictionless contact between two different elastic bodies. The nature depends on the direction of slip, and the singular stress field appears when the body with smaller μ/(κ-1) (μ: the shear modulus, κ=3-4ν, ν: Poisson's ratio) slips towards the region of frictional contact, while no singularities appear when the direction of slip is opposite. The order of the singularity is smaller than 1/2 regardless of the level of friction.
