Elastic Rough Surface Contact and the Root Mean Square Slope of Measured Surfaces over Multiple Scales

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2021
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.

Asynchronous contact mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Graphics, 2009
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

open access: yesFrontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2020
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.

From Geometry to Coherent Dissipative Dynamics in Quantum Mechanics

open access: yesQuantum Reports, 2021
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.

The Painlevé paradox in contact mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesIMA Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2016
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 ...

Advanced Numerical Methods in Computational Solid Mechanics

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
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 [...]

A case study on the observability of cutting fluid flow and the associated contact mechanics in scaled rough surfaces

open access: yesSN Applied Sciences, 2021
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.

Variational Methods for Nonsmooth Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In this thesis we investigate nonsmooth classical and continuum mechanics and its discretizations by means of variational numerical and geometric methods.

Contact Hamiltonian Description of 1D Frictional Systems

open access: yesCommunications in Advanced Mathematical Sciences, 2021
In this paper, we consider contact Hamiltonian description of 1D frictional dynamics with no conserved force. Friction forces that are monomials of velocity, and sum of two monomials are considered.
