Unilateral Contact of Elastic Bodies (moment Theory)
نویسنده
چکیده
Boundary contact problems of statics of the moment (couplestress) theory of elasticity are studied in the case of a unilateral contact of two elastic anisotropic nonhomogeneous media. A problem, in which during deformation the contact zone lies within the boundaries of some domain, and a problem, in which the contact zone can extend, are given a separate treatment. Concrete problems suitable for numerical realizations are considered. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 74B99, 35J85.

Topology Optimization of Two Linear Elastic Bodies in Unilateral Contact
Abstract The optimal solutions are most sensitive to the boundary conditions when performing topology optimization of components. In many applications the design domain of the components are subjected to unilateral contact conditions. In order to obtain relevant conceptual designs by topology optimization of such systems, the contact conditions should be included explicitly in the optimization....
متن کاملContact Force Analysis in Static Two-fingered Robot Grasping
Static grasping of a spherical object by two robot fingers is studied in this paper. The fingers may be rigid bodies or elastic beams, they may grasp the body with various orientation angles, and the tightening displacements may be linear or angular. Closed-form solutions for normal and tangential contact forces due to tightening displacements are obtained by solving compatibility equations, fo...
متن کاملA posteriori error estimation for unilateral contact with matching and non-matching meshes
In this paper, we consider the unilateral contact problem between elastic bodies. We propose an error estimator based on the concept of error in the constitutive relation in order to evaluate the ®nite element approximation involving matching and non-matching meshes on the contact zone. The determination of the a posteriori error estimate is linked to the building of kinematically-admissible st...
متن کاملAdhesive Contact of Visco-elastic Bodies and Defect Measures Arising by Vanishing Viscosity
An adhesive unilateral contact of elastic bodies with a small viscosity in the linear Kelvin-Voigt rheology at small strains is scrutinized. The flow-rule for debonding the adhesive is considered rate-independent and unidirectional. The asymptotics for the viscosity or for external loading speed approaching zero is proved in some special cases, in particular when inertia is neglected or when de...
متن کاملNumerical Analysis of a Frictionless Contact Problem for Elastic-Viscoplastic Materials
We consider a mathematical model which describes the unilateral quasistatic contact of two elastic-viscoplastic bodies. The contact is without friction and it is modeled by the classical Signorini boundary conditions. The model consists of an evolution equation coupled with a time-dependent variational inequality. It has been shown that the variational problem of the model has a unique solution...
