Abstract
This paper presents a mathematical model and numerical solution for axisymmetic contact between an elastic tape and a flexible, bumpy roll. Regions of tape/roll contact and gap are identified. It is shown that slight imperfections in the roll's geometry can lead to extremely large deviations from the expected nominal values for interfacial pressure and hoop stress of the tape.
