Analytical and Experimental Characterization of Ball-Groove Contact Problems

Ball-groove contact problems are often encountered in machine design. The analytical modelling of the resulting stress-strain behaviour is however difficult, as it implies the necessity to deal with the non-linear Hertzian theory of point contacts. This work adresses the limits of applicability of the available analytical approaches for the calculation of ball-V groove couplings employed in ultra-high precision positioning. The analytical results are validated experimentally via high-precision measurements.
