The objective of this study is to interpret experimentally observed surface cracking and pitting caused by cyclic sliding contact. In our model, the fracture of two surface-breaking cracks in a homogeneous half plane is analyzed using the finite element technique. The half plane is loaded by a sliding rigid cylinder, which models a moving asperity. Stress intensity factors for the two crack tips are...
