Analysis of a Unilateral Contact Problem with Normal Compliance [PDF]
Annals of the West University of Timisoara: Mathematics and Computer Science, 2014 The paper deals with the study of a quasistatic unilateral contact problem between a nonlinear elastic body and a foundation. The contact is modelled with a normal compliance condition associated to unilateral constraint and the Coulomb's friction law ...

Low Left Atrial Compliance Contributes to the Clinical Recurrence of Atrial Fibrillation after Catheter Ablation in Patients with Structurally and Functionally Normal Heart. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Stiff left atrial (LA) syndrome was initially reported in post-cardiac surgery patients and known to be associated with low LA compliance. We investigated the physiological and clinical implications of LA compliance by estimating LA pulse pressure (LApp)

Variational analysis of a frictional contact problem with wear and damage
Mathematical Modelling and Analysis, 2021 We study a quasistatic problem describing the contact with friction and wear between a piezoelectric body and a moving foundation. The material is modeled by an electro-viscoelastic constitutive law with long memory and damage.

A dynamic contact problem between elasto-viscoplastic piezoelectric bodies
Electronic Journal of Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations, 2014 We consider a dynamic contact problem with adhesion between two elastic-viscoplastic piezoelectric bodies. The contact is frictionless and is described with the normal compliance condition. We derive variational formulation for the model which is in

Linear versus nonlinear reliability-based topology optimization with application to bridge structures [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 In general, two types of topology optimization models can be found in literature. The first type is called Deterministic Topology Optimization (DTO) leading to a single layout when considering a given design space.
