In this paper, an electro-elastic frictional contact problem is studied numerically as a hemivariational inequality. Convergence of the Galerkin approximation for the hemivariational inequality is proved, and Cea’s type inequalities are derived for error estimation. The results are applied to the electro-elastic contact problem, and an optimal order error estimate is deduced for linear element approximation. Finally, two numerical examples are reported, providing numerical evidence of the optimal convergence order theoretically predicted.
