Existing solution techniques which are based upon the variational inequalities description of frictional contact problems mostly adopt penalty and regularization methods. The convergence and accuracy of these methods are governed by user defined parameters. To overcome the difficulties associated wi
Adaptive finite element methods have been developed over the last ten years for engineering problems in solid and fluid mechanics. They provide a tool for accurate and reliable analysis which is needed in many applications. The use of these techniques within contact problems is advantageous since th
A new finite element solution method for the analysis of frictional contact problems is presented. The contact problem is solved by imposing geometric constraints on the pseudo equilibrium configuration, defined as a configuration at which the compatibility conditions are violated. The algorithm doe
