✦ Synopsis

The article concerns the problem of bonded contact of a thin\ ~exible elliptical disk with a transversely isotropic half!space[ Three di}erent cases of loading have been considered] "a# the disk is loaded by a transverse force\ whose line of action passes through the center of the disk and lies in the plane of the disk" b# the disk is subjected to a rotation by a torque\ whose axis is perpendicular to the surface of the half! space^"c# the half!space with the bonded disk is under uniform stress _eld at in_nity[ The problem corresponding to all three cases is reduced\ in a uni_ed manner\ to a set of coupled two!dimensional integral equations[ Closed!form solutions for these equations have been obtained by using Galin|s theorem[
