Abstract
This paper is concerned with the solution of three dimensional
nonlinear contact problems of solid mechanics by
the finite element method. The contact conditions are
imposed using the incremental potentials of the contact
forces. The Lagrange multiplier method as well as penalty
function one are used to formulate these potentials. The
Coulomb's law is used to solve the contact problems accounting
for the friction condition. These contact conditions
lead to contact matrices and force vectors which are
added to conventional finite element matrices and vectors.
The solutions to various sample static and dynamic tree
dimensional contact problems are presented to demonstrate
the applicability of these algorithms.
