Abstract
The problem of a rigid punch on an elastic half plane with orthotropic and non-homogeneous material is considered. The axes of orthotropy are chosen to coincide with the Cartesian coordinate system in which one axis is parallel to the edge of the half plane and the other is perpendicular to it. Non-homogeneity is introduced in both directions of orthotropy as continuous functions along these directions. Using the Fourier Transform Technique, the mixed boundary value problem is reduced to a singular integral equation which is solved numerically. The formulation of the problem is obtained for a rigid punch with arbitrary shape.
