Wear and Contact Mechanics

Wear and Contact Mechanics

Description:

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters BCI (WoS).
This special topic volume is a compilation of works contributed by experts from the international scientific community in the field of Wear and Contact Mechanics. This volume presents ten papers that cover different aspects of the current areas of research in Wear and Contact Mechanics using new innovative theoretical and computational approaches based on the Finite Element Methods (FEM) and/or the Boundary Element Methods (BEM). A number of topics are addressed, such as anisotropic contact, anisotropic wear, crack-face contact and semi-permeable electric/magnetic boundary conditions in multifield materials (e.i. piezoelectric solids), dynamic contact modeling, fatigue crack growth life estimation, fatigue life assessment, fretting fatigue, fretting wear computing, rolling contact modeling, or treatment of nonmatching interfaces in contact problems.

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView: This special topic volume consists of 10 invited papers on wear and contact mechanics. Engineers from Europe, the US, and Brazil discuss the influence of equivalent contact area computation in extended node to surface contact elements; a partitioned formulation for FEM/BEM (Finite Element Method/Boundary Element Method) coupling in contact problems using localized Lagrange multipliers; steady wear states for monotonic relative sliding; anisotropic contact and wear simulation using boundary elements; life assessment in fretting fatigue; transient dynamic analysis of cracked multifield solids; BEM and tangent operator technique; the effect of friction on the size of near-tip contact zone in an interface crack; a closed-form solution of the frictional sliding contact problem for an orthotropic elastic half-plane; and nonlinear time spectral analysis for a dynamic contact model with buckling for an elastic plate.
