Abstract
The present paper is concerned with a class of penalized Signorini problems also called normal compliance models. These nonlinear models approximate the Signorini problem and are characterized both by a penalty parameter \(\varepsilon \) and by a “power parameter” \(\alpha \ge 1\), where \(\alpha = 1\) corresponds to the standard penalization. We choose a continuous conforming linear finite element approximation in space dimensions \(d=2,3\) and obtain \(L^2\)-error estimates under various assumptions which are discussed and analyzed.
