Konyukhov A. Introduction to Computational Contact Mechanics...Geometrical..2015

Textbook in PDF format

The current book is based on the course being taught over several years for students studying computational contact mechanics. The geometrically exact theory for contact interaction is delivered in a simple attractive engineering manner available for undergraduate students starting from 1D geometry. The book is subdivided into two parts:
Part I contains the theoretical basis for the computational contact mechanics, including necessary material for lectures in computational contact mechanics.
Part II includes the necessary material for the practical implementation of algorithms, including verification and numerical analysis of contact problems
