The two-dimensional thermoelastic contact problem of an anisotropic half-space indented by a heated rigid flat punch is studied using the extended version of Stroh’s formalism. Two cases, where the contact interface is nonslip and frictionless, have been considered. In the first case, the contact is perfect throughout the punch face. In the second case, separation is assumed to occur at the edges of the punch.
