Summary on Grant Application Form
This proposal involves the innovative development of the Boudary Element method in practical three-dimensional contact problems where friction causes a stick-slip behaviour. Sophistcated isoparametric quadratic elements will be used to model contact surfaces, implementing new automatic iteration and load incrementation schemes.
