The unbonded frictionless receding contact problem of a thin plate placed under centrally symmetric vertical loading while resting on an elastic half-space or a Winkler foundation is solved in this paper. The problem is transformed into the solution of two-coupled integral-series equations over an unknown contact region. The problem is nonlinear by virtue of unilateral contact and therefore needs to be solved iteratively. Special attention is given to the edge and corner contact pressure singularities for the plate on the elastic half-space. Comparison is made with other relevant numerical results available.

The problem of normal contact with friction of a rigid sphere with an elastic half-space is considered. An analytical treatment of the problem is presented, with the corresponding boundary-value problem formulated in the toroidal coordinates. A general solution in the form of Papkovich–Neuber functions and the Mehler–Fock integral transform is used to reduce the problem to a single integral equation with respect to the unknown contact pressure in the slip zone. An analysis of contact stresses is carried out, and exact analytical solutions are obtained in limiting cases, including a full stick contact problem and a contact problem for an incompressible half-space.
