Make enough movements to wake up your seat partner, and if that doesn't work, then press the FA call button!

I find the SkyMall or Sky magazine to be quite thick, and in the past when I've had someone whose elbows jabbed overmuch into my space I've erected a "wall" with the magazine. Admittedly it requires giving up 100 percent of the armrest, but worth it to me to be able to establish a line in the sand (or air if you will) which shall not be crossed.
