ABSTRACT



A problem of the theory of elasticity is considered for an elastic layer in frictional contact with an elastic half-space bounded by a plane with an axially symmetric smooth dip. The method of the Hankel integral transforms is used to solve the problem. In this way we obtain a system of dual integral equations such that it can be reduced to a single Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. The numerical results are presented in the form of diagrams for particular cases of the dip. Besides we discuss the variation of the contact parameters depending on the layer thickness.

Key words: discontinuous frictional contact, an axially-symmetric problem, dual integral equations.
