Evolution of the stick/slip contact domains obtained using BEM for an increasing tangential force.

Black areas denote stick regions, grey is for sliding regions, white means no contact. With increasing tangential force (left to right), slip regions grow from regions supporting lower normal forces up to the whole contact area.
