Contents: We consider a mathematical model which describes the contact between a deformable body and an obstacle, the so-called foundation. The contact is frictional and is modelled with aversion of normal compliance condition and the associated Coulomb's law of dry friction in which the adhesion of contact surfaces is taken into account. The evolution of the bonding fieldis described by a first order differential equation and the material's behavior is modelled with a nonlinear elastic constitutive law. We derive a variational formulation of the problem then, under a smallness assumption on the coefficient of friction, we prove the existence of a unique weak solution for the model. The proof is based on arguments of time-dependent variational inequalities, differential equations and Banach'sfixed point theorem. Finally, we extend our results in the case when the piezoelectric effect is taken into account, i.e. in the case when the material's behavior is modelled with a nonlinear electro-elastic constitutive law.
