Mechanical engineering, an engineering discipline forged and shaped by the needs of the industrial revolution, is once again asked to do its substantial share i
Topics of this book span the range from spatial and temporal discretization techniques for contact and impact problems with small and finite deformations over i
This book describes the solution of contact problems with an emphasis on idealized (mainly linear) elastic problems that can be treated with elementary analytic
Introduction to Computational Contact Mechanics: A GeometricalApproach covers the fundamentals of computational contactmechanics and focuses on its practical im
This treatise is concerned with the stresses and deformation of solid bodies in contact with each other, along curved surfaces which touch initially at a point
