Abstract:
The contact problem for two elastic plates aligned at a prescribed angle to each other is considered. The set of contact points is assumed to be unknown in advance and to be determined only after the problem is solved. Various formulations of the problem are given, and their equivalence is proved. A complete set of boundary conditions fulfilled on the contact domain is found, and the character of satisfaction of these conditions is described. The asymptotic properties of solutions are studied for rigidity parameters of the contacting plates tending to infinity.
