Contact problems for a thin compressible elastic layer attached to a rigid support are
studied. Assuming that the thickness of the layer is much less than the characteristic …

Contact problems involving deformable bodies are widespread in both industrial and
everyday situations. They have a crucial impact on structural and mechanical systems …

Two-parametric asymptotic analysis of the equilibrium of an elastic half-space coated by a
thin soft layer is developed. The initial scaling is motivated by the exact solution of the plane …

The two-dimensional frictional contact problem of a rigid stamp sliding over an orthotropic
medium is considered. The coordinate system is chosen such that it is aligned with the …

In this study frictional contact problem of an orthotropic layer indented by a rigid moving
cylindrical punch is considered. The rigid punch moves over the orthotropic layer with a …

The main interest in this study is the crack initiation in graded orthotropic materials under
sliding contact conditions. We consider the two-dimensional sliding contact problem …

Stresses due to frictional sliding contact between a rigid cylinder and laminated glass fiber
composites are calculated in this study. A novel analytical formulation based on Cholesky …

In this study, moving contact problem for a rigid punch and a functionally graded orthotropic
layer bonded to an isotropic homogeneous layer is solved, semi-analytically. The cylindrical …

This study has been performed to investigate the receding contact problem of a
homogeneous orthotropic coating that is not bonded to a homogeneous isotropic substrate …

The present work is a pioneering study on the contact mechanics including Pasternak
foundation model. The context of this research is frictionless plane contact problem between …
