PressionHertz 1.00

PressionHertz is a specialized engineering application developed by CTICM to evaluate Hertzian contact stresses between curved surfaces. It helps structural and mechanical engineers assess contact pressures and contact areas for components such as wheels and rails, rollers, pins, and spherical or cylindrical interfaces. By streamlining classic Hertzian calculations, it supports faster sizing, verification, and documentation of steel and mechanical connections under realistic loading.

Key capabilities:

• Calculates maximum contact pressure and contact patch dimensions for point and line contacts
• Handles common geometries (spherical and cylindrical), user-defined loads, and material properties
• Offers clear, traceable results to support design decisions and engineering reports
• Useful for applications including crane wheels on rails, press-fits, rollers, and bearing-like contacts

Benefits:

• Reduces manual computation time and the risk of arithmetic errors
• Facilitates parametric exploration of loads, materials, and geometries
• Supports engineering checks in line with established practice and applicable standards

Intended users:

• Structural and mechanical engineers, researchers, and technical consultants working on contact interfaces in steel and mixed-material assemblies
