On the effect of the contact surface definition in the Cartesian grid finite element method
Abstract The definition of the surface plays an important role in the solution of contact problems, as the evaluation of the contact force is based on the measure of the gap between the solids. In this work three different methods to define the surface are proposed for the solution of contact proble...
