An iterative method of solving the problem of interaction between elastic bodies

From MaRDI portal





A finite-dimensional analogue of the static three-dimensional contact problem for two elastic bodies is studied. The interacting bodies are approximated by half-spaces, taking Coulomb friction into account. It is assumed that the normal elastic displacements are independent of the tangential stresses and that the boundary separating the slippage zones from the adhesion zones within the area of contact is reduced to a system of nonlinear equations. An iterative process is proposed for solving this system. The convergence of the iterative sequence to a unique limit point independent of the initial approximation, is shown.
