Notes:
A new boundary element solution algorithm for two-dimensional and axisymmetric contact problems with friction, based on an independent discretization of the contacting surfaces and under static and proportional loading conditions, is presented. The solution procedure uses the element shape functions to distribute the geometry, tractions and displacements on each contact element. The contact constraints are then applied between each contacting node and the opposite contact segment. The overall boundary element matrix equations for the contacting bodies are coupled using the contact conditions at the interface without introducing any additional variables into the solution matrix. The algorithm is applied to several two-dimensional and axisymmetric frictional contact examples and the results obtained are in very good agreement with finite element and analytical solutions.
