Introduction to Computational Contact Mechanics: A Geometrical Approach covers the fundamentals of computational contact mechanics and focuses on its practical

Topics of this book span the range from spatial and temporal discretization techniques for contact and impact problems with small and finite deformations over i

Computational contact mechanics is a broad topic which brings together algorithmic, geometrical, optimization and numerical aspects for a robust, fast and accur

Many physical systems require the description of mechanical interaction across interfaces if they are to be successfully analyzed. Examples in the engineered wo

This book contains a systematical analysis of geometrical situations leading to contact pairs -- point-to-surface, surface-to-surface, point-to-curve, curve-to-
