Abstract
Conditions under which Hertz contact problems exhibit the property of self-similarity are determined. Qualitative conclusions concerning the character of selfsimilitude solutions from which, among other things, an equation similar to the familiar Mayer equation follows, are drawn. The problem of the collision between nonlinearly elastic bodies is also examined.
