AB - <p style="text-align: justify;">In this paper, the linear finite element approximation to the elastic contact problem with curved contact boundary is considered. The error bound $O(h^{1/2})$ is obtained with requirements of two times continuously differentiable for contact boundary and the usual regular triangulation, while I.Hlavacek et. al. obtained the error bound $O(h^{3/4})$ with requirements of three times continuously differentiable for contact boundary and extra regularities of triangulation (c.f. [2]). &nbsp;</p>
