Contact mechanics modelling of articular cartilage and applications [PDF]
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease of articular cartilage. The normal cartilage is known to be an excellent bearing material with remarkable lubricating properties and very low frictional co-efficient and wear and generally survives the ...

Joint contact modelling of articular cartilage in synovial joints [PDF]
Hip joint is one of the important load bearing joints and has been extensively studied to investigate contact mechanics and tribology. It has known to experience high contact forces and stresses.

This study investigates the predictions of the real contact area for perfectly elastic rough surfaces using a boundary element method (BEM). Sample surface measurements were used in the BEM to predict the real contact area as a function of load.

From Geometry to Coherent Dissipative Dynamics in Quantum Mechanics
Starting from the geometric description of quantum systems, we propose a novel approach to time-independent dissipative quantum processes according to which energy is dissipated but the coherence of the states is preserved.

Asynchronous contact mechanics [PDF]
We develop a method for reliable simulation of elastica in complex contact scenarios. Our focus is on firmly establishing three parameter-independent guarantees: that simulations of well-posed problems (a) have no interpenetrations, (b) obey causality, momentum- and energy-conservation laws, and (c) complete in finite time.

FFT-Based Methods for Computational Contact Mechanics
Computational contact mechanics seeks for numerical solutions to contact area, pressure, deformation, and stresses, as well as flash temperature, in response to the interaction of two bodies.

Advanced Numerical Methods in Computational Solid Mechanics
Efficient numerical solving of nonlinear solid mechanics problems is still a challenging issue which concerns various fields: nonlinear behavior, micromechanics, contact mechanics, damage, crack propagation, rupture, etc [...]

The Painlevé paradox in contact mechanics [PDF]
The 120-year old so-called Painleve paradox involves the loss of determinism in models of planar rigid bodies in point contact with a rigid surface, subject to Coulomb-like dry friction. The phenomenon occurs due to coupling between normal and rotational degrees-of-freedom such that the effective normal force becomes attractive rather than repulsive ...

In grinding processes, heat is generated by the contact of the grains with the workpiece. In order to reduce damages on the workpiece and the grinding tool, cutting fluids are necessary for most grinding processes.
