A frictionless contact algorithm for deformable bodies

Olivier Pantz (2011)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

This article is devoted to the presentation of a new contact algorithm for bodies undergoing finite deformations. We only address the kinematic aspect of the contact problem, that is the numerical treatment of the non-intersection constraint. In consequence, mechanical aspects like friction, adhesion or wear are not investigated and we restrict our analysis to the simplest frictionless case. On the other hand, our method allows us to treat contacts and self-contacts, thin or non-thin...

On the solution of a finite element approximation of a linear obstacle plate problem

Luis Fernandes, Isabel Figueiredo, Joaquim Júdice (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

In this paper the solution of a finite element approximation of a linear obstacle plate problem is investigated. A simple version of an interior point method and a block pivoting algorithm have been proposed for the solution of this problem. Special purpose implementations of these procedures are included and have been used in the solution of a set of test problems. The results of these experiences indicate that these procedures are quite efficient to deal with these instances and compare...

Open and closed shear-walls in high-rise structural systems: Static and dynamic analysis

Alberto Carpinteri, Giuseppe Lacidogna, Giuseppe Nitti (2016)

Curved and Layered Structures

Similarity:

In the present paper, a General Algorithm is applied to the analysis of high-rise structures. This algorithm is to be used as a calculation tool in preliminary design; it allows to define the interaction between closed and open, straight or curved shear-walls, and the forces exchanged in structures subject to mainly horizontal loads. The analysis can be performed in both static and dynamic regimes, the mode shapes and the natural frequencies being assessed. This general formulation allows...

Approximation and numerical solution of contact problems with friction

Jaroslav Haslinger, Miroslav Tvrdý (1983)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

The present paper deals with numerical solution of the contact problem with given friction. By a suitable choice of multipliers the whole problem is transformed to that of finding a saddle-point of the Lagrangian function ℒ on a certain convex set K × Λ . The approximation of this saddle-point is defined, the convergence is proved and the rate of convergence established. For the numerical realization Uzawa’s algorithm is used. Some examples are given in the conclusion.

On a new computational algorithm for impacts of elastic bodies

Hynek Štekbauer, Ivan Němec, Rostislav Lang, Daniel Burkart, Jiří Vala (2022)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

Computational modelling of contact problems is still one of the most difficult aspects of non-linear analysis in engineering mechanics. The article introduces an original efficient explicit algorithm for evaluation of impacts of bodies, satisfying the conservation of both momentum and energy exactly. The algorithm is described in its linearized 2-dimensional formulation in details, as open to numerous generalizations including 3-dimensional ones, and supplied by numerical examples obtained...
