Description
Modern engineering design has led to the realization of the importance of contact problems in many technological fields. Including discussions of mechanical models, numerical aspects, experimental measurements and engineering applications as well as other topics related to the subject, this volume features the proceedings of the Sixth International Conference on Computational Methods and Experimental Measurements in Contact Mechanics. Particular emphasis is placed on the application of advanced theories, while the contributors have also been encouraged to critically review existing ideas and to explore new research ideas. Topics covered include: multi-boundary contact; extrusion and forming process; composite materials; soil structure interaction; computational methods; crashworthiness, impact and shock; biomechanics; experimental techniques; computational methods versus experimental results; and fracture, fatigue and wear.
