A Stabilized Lagrange Multiplier Method for the Finite Element Approximation of Frictional Contact Problems in Elastostatics
نویسنده
چکیده
In this work we consider a stabilized Lagrange multiplier method in order to approximate the Coulomb frictional contact model in linear elastostatics. The particularity of the method is that no discrete inf-sup condition is needed. We study the existence and the uniqueness of solution of the discrete problem.

Space-Time Finite Element Methods for Dynamic Frictional Contact Problems
Space-time finite element methods for dynamic frictional contact problems are discussed in this article. The discretization scheme is based on a mixed formulation of the continuous problem, where the Lagrange multipliers represent the contact and frictional stresses. Using piecewise d-linear and globally continuous basis functions in space and time to construct the trial space for the displacem...
متن کاملStabilized mixed hp-BEM for frictional contact problems in linear elasticity
We analyze stabilized mixed hp-boundary element methods for frictional contact problems for the Lamé equation. The stabilization technique circumvents the discrete inf-sup condition for the mixed problem and thus allows us to use the same mesh and polynomial degree for the primal and dual variables. We prove a priori convergence rates in the case of Tresca friction, using Gauss-Legendre-Lagrang...

The thesis focuses on the solution of both coercive and semi–coercive contact problems by using the Boundary Element Tearing and Interconnecting (BETI) method, which represents a boundary element counterpart of the Finite Element Tearing and Interconnecting (FETI) method. The BETI approach, which uses “tearing” the domain into non–overlapping subdomains and subsequent “gluing” along the artific...
متن کاملAn Enhanced Finite Element method for Two Dimensional Linear Viscoelasticity using Complex Fourier Elements
In this paper, the finite element analysis of two-dimensional linear viscoelastic problems is performed using quadrilateral complex Fourier elements and, the results are compared with those obtained by quadrilateral classic Lagrange elements. Complex Fourier shape functions contain a shape parameter which is a constant unknown parameter adopted to enhance approximation’s accuracy. Since the iso...
متن کاملNon-conforming Coupling of Finite and Boundary Element Methods in Time Domain Monographic Series TU Graz
The combination of finite and boundary element methods for the numerical solution of coupled problems has a long tradition. It has proved to be the method of choice for several applications among which are the acoustic-structure coupling or the soil-structure interaction. In this work, the concept of combining these two approximation methods is carried forward to dynamic problems by developing ...
