Abstract

We consider a mathematical model which describes the contact between a linearly elastic body and an obstacle, the so‐called foundation. The process is quasistatic and the contact is bilateral, i.e. there is no loss of contact during the process. The friction is modelled with Tresca's law. The variational formulation of the problem is a nonlinear evolutionary inequality for the displacement field w...
