The existence and uniqueness of an equilibrium solution to frictional contact problems involving a class of moving rigid obstacles is studied. At low friction coefficient values, the steady sliding frictional contact problem is uniquely solvable, thanks to the Lions-Stampacchia theorem on variational inequalities associated with a nonsymmetric coercive bilinear form. It is proved that the coerciveness of the bilinear form can be lost at some positive critical value of the friction coefficient, depending only on the geometry and the elastic properties of the body. An example presented here, shows that infinitely many solutions can be obtained when the friction coefficient is larger than the critical value. This result is paving the road towards a theory of jamming in terms of bifurcation in variational inequality. The particular case where the elastic body is an isotropic half-space is studied. The corresponding value of the critical friction coefficient is proved to be infinite in this case. In the particular case of the frictionless situation, our analysis incidentally unifies the approaches developed by Lions-Stampacchia (variational inequalities) and Hertz (harmonic analysis on the half-space) to contact problems in linear elasticity.
