'lay contact' is not correct and usable in written English.
'Establish contact' is the correct form. Example: We need to establish contact with the client in order to get their feedback.
By using the rough friction test rig, different surface lay contacts can be simulated and the friction can be measured.
Cercariae, most of which were collected by dissection, lay in contact with the surface film of water, where they were mostly inactive except for occasional tail twitching.
A United States immigration official has been indicted on charges of handing over secrets to a Cuban citizen and lying about contact with Cuban government officials.

Other issues with accurate analysis of cells primarily arose from technical issues with sample preparation (debris and multiple cells lying in contact with each other) and image capture (out-of-focus cells).
Results show that an optimal contact lay angle that provides a minimum friction value is achievable through rig testing.
