Abstract
Several aspects of the mechanics of indentation of a half-space by an elastic indenter which is either conical or wedge-shaped are addressed . These include elucidation of the contact law, the stale of stress in duced when the indenter is either pressed normally or sliding with Cou lomb friction, the strength of the contact, and the influence of shear ing forces less than those necessary to cause sliding, including those induced by elastic mismatch.
