An adhesive unilateral contact of elastic bodies with a small viscosity in\nthe linear Kelvin-Voigt rheology at small strains is scrutinized. The flow-rule\nfor debonding the adhesive is considered rate-independent and unidirectional,\nand inertia is neglected. The asymptotics for the viscosity approaching zero\ntowards purely elastic material involves a certain defect-like measure\nrecording in some sense natural additional energy dissipated in the bulk due to\n(vanishing) viscosity, which is demonstrated on particular 2-dimensional\ncomputational simulations based on a semi-implicit time discretisation and a\nspacial discretisation implemented by boundary-element method.\n
