Mixed finite element analysis of semi-coercive unilateral contact problems with given friction

Ivan Hlaváček (2007)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

A unilateral contact 2D-problem is considered provided one of two elastic bodies can shift in a given direction as a rigid body. Using Lagrange multipliers for both normal and tangential constraints on the contact interface, we introduce a saddle point problem and prove its unique solvability. We discretize the problem by a standard finite element method and prove a convergence of approximations. We propose a numerical realization on the basis of an auxiliary “bolted” problem and the...

Finite element discretization of Darcy's equations with pressure dependent porosity

Similarity:

We consider the flow of a viscous incompressible fluid through a rigid homogeneous porous medium. The permeability of the medium depends on the pressure, so that the model is nonlinear. We propose a finite element discretization of this problem and, in the case where the dependence on the pressure is bounded from above and below, we prove its convergence to the solution and propose an algorithm to solve the discrete system. In the case where the dependence on the pressure is exponential,...

Adaptive finite element methods for elliptic problems: Abstract framework and applications

Serge Nicaise, Sarah Cochez-Dhondt (2010)

Similarity:

We consider a general abstract framework of a continuous elliptic problem set on a Hilbert space that is approximated by a family of (discrete) problems set on a finite-dimensional space of finite dimension not necessarily included into . We give a series of realistic conditions on an error estimator that allows to conclude that the marking strategy of bulk type leads to the geometric convergence of the adaptive algorithm. These conditions are then verified for different concrete...

Least square method for solving contact problems with friction obeying the Coulomb law

Jaroslav Haslinger (1984)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

The paper deals with numerical realization of contact problems with friction obeying the Coulomb law. The original problem is formulated as the fixed-point problem for a certain operator generated by the variational inequality. This inequality is transformed to a system of variational nonlinear equations generating other operators, in a sense "close" to the above one. The fixed-point problem of these operators is solved by the least-square method in which equations and the corresponding...

On finite element uniqueness studies for Coulombs frictional contact model

Patrick Hild (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

We are interested in the finite element approximation of Coulomb's frictional unilateral contact problem in linear elasticity. Using a mixed finite element method and an appropriate regularization, it becomes possible to prove existence and uniqueness when the friction coefficient is less than Cε^{2}|log(h)|^{-1}, where h and ε denote the discretization and regularization parameters, respectively. This bound converging very slowly towards 0 when h decreases (in comparison with the already...
