Biofilms and contact lenses: problems and solutions [PDF]
Contact lenses provide excellent vision correction for many people worldwide. However, they can become colonised by microorganisms and this can result in infections and inflammatory responses at the surface of the eye during wear.

Contact mechanics for randomly rough surfaces [PDF]
When two solids are squeezed together they will in general not make atomic contact everywhere within the nominal (or apparent) contact area. This fact has huge practical implications and must be considered in many technological applications.

A Note on Massively Parallel Implementation of FETI for the Solution of Contact Problems
The paper deals with the solution of large multibody contact problems using massively parallel computers and domain decomposition methods. These methods can solve the problems discretized by billions of nodal variables at the cost nearly proportional to ...

On the Efficient Reconstruction of Displacements in FETI Methods for Contact Problems
The final step in the solution of contact problems of elasticity by FETI-based domain decomposition methods is the reconstruction of displacements corresponding to the Lagrange multipliers for ''gluing'' of subdomains and non-penetration conditions.

Skew critical problems occur in continuous and discrete nonholonomic Lagrangian systems. They are analogues of constrained optimization problems, where the objective is differentiated in directions given by an apriori distribution, instead of tangent ...

Analysis of stick-slip phenomena using discrete element method (Examination of single-layer model)
The phenomenon called “stick-slip” is a type of self-excited vibration. When two objects slide against each other, the stick-slip phenomenon occurs.

On overtwisted contact surgeries
In this note, we obtain a new result concluding when contact (+1/n)-surgery is overtwisted. We give a counterexample to a conjecture by James Conway on overtwistedness of manifolds obtained by contact surgery. We list some problems related to the contact

Droplets move over viscoelastic substrates by surfing a ridge [PDF]
Liquid drops on soft solids generate strong deformations below the contact line, resulting from a balance of capillary and elastic forces. The movement of these drops may cause strong, potentially singular dissipation in the soft solid. Here we show that
