The contact problem investigated in this paper may be more fully described as a three dimensional elastic body with a circular hole through it; inside this tunnel is press fitted a solid elastic plug of finite length. Shear stresses are taken to be absent along the contact interface.

An influence coefficient technique is used to model the governing integral equation. For the elastic region the displacement influence coefficients due to bands of constant pressure are determined using a numerical quadrature on Fourier integrals. However, the plug, being of finite length, requires the superposition of two separate solutions to boundary value problems before the displacement influence coefficients can be determined.

Contact pressure distributions are presented for a sample of parameter variations and also for a case where hydrostatic pressure is present in the tunnel in the elastic region. Despite both components being elastic the imposition of a constant interference displacement along the interface still gives rise to the characteristic singularity in contact pressure at the edges of contact due to the strain discontinuity at these points.
