Contact between two elastic bodies?

So, im trying to find a way to get the contact between two elastic bodies. I’m new to fenics so any adivce would be welcome. If allready seen this Hertzian contact with a rigid indenter using a penalty approach — Numerical tours of continuum mechanics using FEniCS master documentation and understand it and everything but don’t know how to make both bodies elastic.

Thanks a lot for your time and my the force be with you

See: Is there a contact model in FEniCS for two imported physical volumes? - #10 by dokken

There is also alot of work on this topic going on at: GitHub - Wells-Group/asimov-contact: Contact models for ASiMoV
