THE DECISION OF PROBLEMS WITH UNILATERAL CONSTRAINTS AND CULON'S FRICTION UNDER THE DYNAMIC LOAD
Abstract
The numerical approach to the decision of dynamic problems with unilateral constraints and Culon's friction is offered. The decision is formulated on the basis of step-by-step analysis (in time) method with use of frame contact finite elements. The reduced algorithm is illustrated by numerical example.
