โฆ Synopsis
Three-dimensional contact problems in the classical theory of linear elasticity can often be regarded as mixed boundary-value problems of potential theory. In this paper we examine the problem where contact between the indenting object (called a punch) and the elastic medium is maintained over an infinite strip. It is assumed that a rigid frictionless punch with a known profile has indented a homogeneous, isotropic and linearly elastic half-space. Applying the theory of Mathieu functions, an analytic solution of Laplace's equation is obtained through separation of variables in the elliptic cylinder coordinate system. Finally three examples are discussed where in each case the normal component of stress under the punch is numerically evaluated.

The paper is concerned with a Fredholm integral equation of the first kind arising in contact problems for elastic foundations with voids. In the structure of its kernel there are two principal parameters. The first one is of a relative thickness of the strip foundation. The second one is coupled wi
A solution is given for the frictionless indentation of an elastic half-space by a flat-ended cylindrical punch with a central circular recess, when the load is large enough to establish a circular region of contact in the recess. The problem is reduced to two simultaneous Fredholm equations using t
The plane problem of the mutual wear of a wavy punch and an elastic strip, bonded to an undeformable foundation under the condition of complete contact between the punch and the strip is considered. An analytical expression for the contact pressure is constructed using the general Papkovich-Neuber s
