Abstract
Solutions are obtained for some steady-state thermoelastic contact problems in which heat is generated due to friction at the interface between two semi-infinite solids. It is assumed that only one of the solids is a thermal conductor and that the shear tractions at the interface do not influence the normal tractions. A general solution is obtained in terms of a single harmonic potential function which tends to zero on the surface outside the contact area, whilst inside this area a linear combination of the function and its normal derivative is prescribed. Approximate solutions are obtained for the particular cases in which the contact area is a circle or a strip and the surface of one of the contacting solids is spherical, cylindrical or plane.
