Vietnam Journal of Mathematics 33:4 (2005) 469-475  Stress Field in an Elastic Strip in Frictionless Contact with a Rigid Stamp Dang Dinh Ang Abstract.  The author considers an elastic strip of thickness $h$ represented in Cartesian coordinates by $$-\infty < x < \infty,\;\;\;0 \leq y \leq h $$ The strip is clamped at the bottom $y = 0$, the upper side is in contact with a rigid stamp and is assumed to be free from shear and the normal stress $\sigma_y = 0$ on $y = h$ away from the bottom of the stamp. The purpose of this note is to determine the stress field in the elastic strip given the normal displacement $v(x)$ and the lateral displacement $u(x)$ under the stamp.
