Abstract
A solution method is proposed for a 3-D contact problem that considers an indenter sliding over a viscoelastic half-space covered with a Winkler layer. Analysis of the contact pressure distribution, deformation component of the friction force, and internal stresses depending on the properties of elastic layer and other input parameters was carried out. It is shown that the presence of an elastic layer decreases the deformation component of the friction force and also leads to a significant decrease in the internal stresses of the substrate.
