Malanchuk N. Plane contact problems for solids having conformable boundaries accounting for stick and frictional slip

Contact interaction of elastic isotropic solids with comfortable boundaries. To investigate behaviour of contact interaction of solids with comfortable boundaries provided local frictional slip in the vicinity of surface grooves, delaminations, zones with local reduction of friction coefficient and contact thermal resistance within a framework of plane deformation under mechanical and thermal loading. The methods of solution of plane contact problems for half-infinite bodies with variable geometrical and contact parameters has been developed. The technique is based on Muschelishivili complex potentials and theory of singular integral equations. The evolution of slip zones in the vicinity of contact-surfaces irregularities under distributed and localized forces and heat flow has been analyzed. The influence of friction forces on distribution of contact stresses and relative shear of surfaces has been examined. Areas of application: geophysics, machine building industry, tribology.
