sentences:  The radius of contact between two spheres from DMT theory is
  and the pull-off force is
  When the pull-off force is achieved the contact area becomes zero and there is no singularity in the contact stresses at the edge of the contact area.In terms of the work of adhesion formula_196
  and
  
  In 1977, Tabor showed that the apparent contradiction between the JKR and DMT theories could be resolved by noting that the two theories were the extreme limits of a single theory parametrized by the Tabor parameter (formula_199) defined as
  
  The total adhesive force is then given by
  
  The compression due to Dugdale adhesion is
  
  and the gap at formula_203 is
  
  The net traction on the contact area is then given by formula_205 and the net contact force is formula_206.When formula_207 the adhesive traction drops to zero.
