Fretting fatigue is a complex phenomenon that is affected by multiaxial stress and contact
problems. In the contact surface, due to the cyclic load, a relatively small displacement is
generated, and the stress concentration is established as well. To assess the fretting fatigue
endurance complimentary to experimental efforts, the Finite Element Method (FEM) has
become a useful tool combined with theoretical approaches. Meanwhile, most (if not all) of
commercially available structural materials can be regarded as heterogeneous materials …
