In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of an incompressible viscous Navier-Stokes fluid evolving above a one-dimensional flat surface. The fluid is subject to a uniform gravitational field and capillary forces acting along the free…
We study the system of nonisentropic thermoelasticity describing the motion of thermoelastic nonconductors of heat in two and three spatial dimensions, where the frame-indifferent constitutive relation generalizes that for compressible…
In this paper we prove the existence and uniqueness of the weak solution for a dynamic thermoviscoelastic problem which describes frictional contact between a body and a foundation. We employ the nonlinear constitutive viscoelastic law with…
Methods for finding the optimal choices of the applied remote loads -- the applied normal force, moment, shear force and remote bulk stresses -- needed to solve frictional contact problems in partial-slip using half-plane theory are derived…
A three-dimensional unilateral contact problem for articular cartilage layers is considered in the framework of the biphasic cartilage model. The articular cartilages bonded to subchondral bones are modeled as biphasic materials consisting…
In this paper, we study the localization phenomena in a slender cylinder composed of an incompressible hyperelastic material subjected to axial tension. We aim to construct the analytical solutions based on a three-dimensional setting and…
We present a new formulation of the Boundary Element Method (BEM) for simulating the non-adhesive and adhesive contact between an indenter of arbitrary shape and an elastic half-space coated with an elastic layer of different material. We…
Thin nematic elastomers, composite hydrogels and plant tissues are among many systems that display uniform anisotropic deformation upon external actuation. In these materials, the spatial orientation variation of a local director field…
We extend the hybridization procedure proposed in [Arnold, Brezzi, 1985, ESAIM: M2AN] to the Virtual Element Method for linear elasticity problems based on the Hellinger-Reissner principle. To illustrate such a technique, we focus on the 2D…
A new interior-exterior penalty method for solving quasi-variational inequality and pseudo-monotone operators arising in two-dimensional point contact problem has been analyzed and developed in discontinuous Galerkin finite volume method…
This work presents an elegant formalism to model the evolution of the full two rigid body problem. The equations of motion, given in a Cartesian coordinate system, are expressed in terms of spherical harmonics and Wigner D-matrices. The…
Thin elastic two-dimensionnal systems under compressive stresses may relieve part of their stretching energy by developing out of plane undulations. We investigate experimentally and theoretically the indentation of an elastic disk…
Recent developments in imaging techniques and correlation algorithms enable measurement of strain fields on a deforming material at high spatial and temporal resolution. In such cases, the computation of the stress field from the known…
A MEMS-based sensing device is used to measure the normal and tangential stress fields at the base of a rough elastomer film in contact with a smooth glass cylinder in steady sliding. This geometry allows for a direct comparison between the…
The linear-frictional contact model is the most commonly used contact mechanism for discrete element (DEM) simulations of granular materials. Linear springs with a frictional slider are used for modeling interactions in directions normal…
The problem of finding an optimal curve for the target magnetic axis of a stellarator is addressed. Euler-Lagrange equations are derived for finite length three-dimensional curves that extremise their bending energy while yielding fixed…
The paper studies the evolution of the thermomechanical and electric state of a thermoviscoelastic thermistor that is in frictional contact with a reactive foundation. The mechanical process is dynamic, while the electric process is…
Programming the static friction of mechanical interfaces is critical for soft robotics, haptics, and precision gripping. Static friction is governed by the real contact area, and standard rough surfaces exhibit a linear area-load scaling…
The vortex-like solutions are studied in the framework of the gauge model of disclinations in elastic continuum. A complete set of model equations with disclination driven dislocations taken into account is considered. Within the linear…
One of the most challenging and basic problems in elastic rod dynamics is a description of rods in contact that prevents any unphysical self-intersections. Most previous works addressed this issue through the introduction of short-range…
