AbstractThis paper is concerned with an axially symmetric frictionless contact between an elastically transversely isptropic functionally graded half-space and a rigid base that has a small axisymmetric surface recess. The graded half-space is modeled as a nonhomogeneous medium. We reduce the problem to solving Fredholm integral equations, solve these equations numerically and establish a relationship between the applied pressure and gap radius. The effects of anisotropy and nonhomogeneity parameter of the graded half-space on the normal pressure as well as on the critical pressure have been shown graphically.

The elastoplastic problem of the half-space with a hole subjected to axially symmetric loading considered in this paper is based on the elastoplastic deformation process theory. Solution of this problem is carried out by using the modified elastic solution method and the finite element method. Some results of numerical calculation are presented here to give the picture of plastic domains enlarging in the body and the obtained displacements on the free boundary of the half-space.
