English abstract:
The frictional contact behaviour of extensible and flexible strips on rigid ground and loaded by transversal pressure is considered analytically. Complete and asymptotic solutions are presented. For specific cases diagrams are derived which can be used for engineering applications. One practical relevance of these problems is discussed with regard to the uplift of the bottom plate of vertical unanchored liquid storage tanks. The complicated behaviour of the uplift of a strip adhered to the ground is briefly investigated. Analytically obtained results of these nonlinear problems are compared with finite element solutions.
