A new formulation is presented for the analysis of contact in degenerate shell elements. This formulation accounts for the transverse stress and strain through the shell thickness and can accommodate double-sided shell contact. The kinematic contact conditions are expressed accurately in terms of th

A practical method is presented for numerical analysis of problems in solid (in particular soil) mechanics which involve large strains or deformations. The method is similar to what is referred to as 'arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian', with simple infinitesimal strain incremental analysis combined with
## Abstract Specimens of silicaโreinforced polysiloxane foam pads were threeโdimensionally imaged during axial compressive loading to densification. The foams' behavior was highly nonlinear and showed the three characteristic regions of linear elastic, elastic buckling, and densification. A finiteโ
The paper introduces a general theory for the numerical simulation of large deformation contact problems. The contacting bodies under consideration may be of two-or three-dimensional shape modelled by รฟnite elements. A contact รฟnite element which can be applied to handle multi-body contact as well a
