Solution of a plane contact problem by finite element method

Abstract

Solution of a plane contact problem by finite element method

Filipov A.M., Khomenko M.V.

Incoming article date: 10.03.2016

"This article provides a solution of the plane contact problem with the use of a finite-element method. It presents the algorithms to determine the “node – response surface” contacting pairs through method of minimal penetration of contacting bodies. The article also contains the algorithm of rapid formation of the global stiffness matrix, taking into account the changes of the connections between mesh nodes for each iteration of solving in the Mathcad software."

Keywords: solution of the contact problem, flat stress strain state of the finite element method, Mathcad
