An algorithm “Fastsim” for the simplified theory of rolling contact is described which is 15-25 times as fast as the existing programs Simrol (Kalker), and 3 times as fast as Rolcon (Knothe). The relative total force computed with Fastsim differs at most 0.2 from that calculated with Simrol, Simcona (Goree & Law), Rolcon, and the “exact” program Duvorol (Kalker). Descriptions and lists of an Algol 60, and HP 67 program version are available upon request: the Fortran IV version is given in the paper.
