On the Equivalence Problem for Toric Contact Structures on S^3-bundles over S^2$
We study the contact equivalence problem for toric contact structures on $S^3$-bundles over $S^2$. That is, given two toric contact structures, one can ask the question: when are they equivalent as contact structures while inequivalent as toric contact ...

Numerical Analysis of a Contact Problem with Wear
This paper represents a sequel to the previous one, where numerical solution of a quasistatic contact problem is considered for an elastic body in frictional contact with a moving foundation.

General procedure for solution of contact problems under dynamic normal and tangential loading based on the known solution of normal contact problem [PDF]
In this article, we show that the normal contact problem between two elastic bodies in the half-space approximation can always be transformed to an equivalent problem of the indentation of a profile into an elastic Winkler foundation.

THREE-DIMENSIONAL CONTACT PROBLEM FOR A TRANSVERSELY ISOTROPIC SOLID
The spatial contact problem with an unknown contact domain is investigated for a transversely isotropic elastic half-space the boundary of which is perpendicular to the planes of isotropy.

Optimization problems for a viscoelastic frictional contact problem with unilateral constraints
We consider a mathematical model which describes the contact between a viscoelastic body and a rigid-deformable foundation with memory effects. We derive a variational formulation of the model which is in the form of a history-dependent variational ...

On the dynamic contact problem with two deformable stamps [PDF]
The problem of the time-harmonic behavior of two deformable semi-infinite stamps lying on a deformable base is considered. It is assumed that the stamps converge with parallel ends in such a way that they form a crack, defect, or tectonic fault in the ...

Asymptotic Approach to Solving the Contact Problem for a Rolling Body with a Thin Deformable Rim
On the basis of an asymptotic approach to solving the elasticity theory boundary value problem for a thin strip rigidly linked to a non-deformable base, the differential equations are derived for determining the normal and shear loads distributed on the ...

Contact, Political Solidarity and Collective Action: An Indian Case Study of Relations between Historically Disadvantaged Communities [PDF]
Research on the contact hypothesis has highlighted the role of contact in improving intergroup relations. Most of this research has addressed the problem of transforming the prejudices of historically advantaged communities, thereby eroding wider ...

Structure of Symmetry Groups via Cartan's Method: Survey of Four Approaches [PDF]
In this review article we discuss four recent methods for computing Maurer-Cartan structure equations of symmetry groups of differential equations. Examples include solution of the contact equivalence problem for linear hyperbolic equations and finding a
