Contact interaction of two compressed electroelastic half-spaces

  • Published:
International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

The contact interaction of two compressed electroelastic transversely isotropic half-spaces with different properties is studied. One of the half-spaces has an axisymmetric notch of special shape. The contact plane coincides with the plane of isotropy of the half-spaces. Explicit formulas for the contact pressure, displacements, and the size of the gap between piezoelectric half-spaces are derived. These contact characteristics for transversely isotropic and isotropic elastic half-spaces are obtained as special cases
