Abstract
The paper deals with a general and highly effective method for
the solution of contact problems with one-side constraint, which
are necessary particularly for the calculation of machine parts
fitting in engineering. This method belongs to the group of
methods for solving boundary value problems. Both the finite
element method (FEM) and the boundary element method
(BEM) are included amongst these methods. The substance of
the method presented consists of setting up and solving numerically
the boundary integral equations of contact. The great
advantage of this method is that it involves the effect of macro-un-
evenness and waviness on the contact surface. From this it
follows that the interface is in general comprised of alternating
contact and gap regions, and the system being solved is subject
to nonlinear physical constraints. The numerical procedure
consists in using the BEM in the numerical sense only.
