  In this paper, we consider unilateral contact problem without friction
between a rigid body and deformable one in the framework of isogeometric
analysis. We present the theoretical analysis of the mixed problem using an
active-set strategy and for a primal space of NURBS of degree $p$ and $p-2$ for
a dual space of B-Spline. A inf-sup stability is proved to ensure a good
property of the method. An optimal a priori error estimate is demonstrated
without assumption on the unknown contact set. Several numerical examples in
two- and three-dimensional and in small and large deformation demonstrate the
accuracy of the proposed method.
