A quasistatic contact problem with unilateral constraint and slip-dependent friction

Arezki Touzaline (2015)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider a mathematical model of a quasistatic contact between an elastic body and an obstacle. The contact is modelled with unilateral constraint and normal compliance, associated to a version of Coulomb's law of dry friction where the coefficient of friction depends on the slip displacement. We present a weak formulation of the problem and establish an existence result. The proofs employ a time-discretization method, compactness and lower semicontinuity arguments.

Quasistatic frictional problems for elastic and viscoelastic materials

Oanh Chau, Dumitru Motreanu, Mircea Sofonea (2002)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We consider two quasistatic problems which describe the frictional contact between a deformable body and an obstacle, the so-called foundation. In the first problem the body is assumed to have a viscoelastic behavior, while in the other it is assumed to be elastic. The frictional contact is modeled by a general velocity dependent dissipation functional. We derive weak formulations for the models and prove existence and uniqueness results. The proofs are based on the theory of evolution...

Analysis and numerical approximation of an elastic frictional contact problem with normal compliance

Weimin Han, Mircea Sofonea (1999)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider the problem of frictional contact between an elastic body and an obstacle. The elastic constitutive law is assumed to be nonlinear. The contact is modeled with normal compliance and the associated version of Coulomb's law of dry friction. We present two alternative yet equivalent weak formulations of the problem, and establish existence and uniqueness results for both formulations using arguments of elliptic variational inequalities and fixed point theory. Moreover, we show...

A study of a unilateral and adhesive contact problem with normal compliance

Arezki Touzaline (2014)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to study a quasistatic unilateral contact problem between an elastic body and a foundation. The constitutive law is nonlinear and the contact is modelled with a normal compliance condition associated to a unilateral constraint and Coulomb's friction law. The adhesion between contact surfaces is taken into account and is modelled with a surface variable, the bonding field, whose evolution is described by a first-order differential equation. We establish a variational...

Analysis and Numerical Approximation of an Electro-elastic Frictional Contact Problem

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

We consider the problem of frictional contact between an piezoelectric body and a conductive foundation. The electro-elastic constitutive law is assumed to be nonlinear and the contact is modelled with the Signorini condition, nonlocal Coulomb friction law and a regularized electrical conductivity condition. The existence of a unique weak solution of the model is established. The finite elements approximation for the problem is presented, ...

Existence Results for Unilateral Quasistatic Contact Problems With Friction and Adhesion

Marius Cocu, Rémi Rocca (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We consider a two dimensional elastic body submitted to unilateral contact conditions, local friction and adhesion on a part of his boundary. After discretizing the variational formulation with respect to time we use a smoothing technique to approximate the friction term by an auxiliary problem. A shifting technique enables us to obtain the existence of incremental solutions with bounds independent of the regularization parameter. We finally obtain the existence of a quasistatic...
