Normal contact performance of mortise and tenon joint: theoretical analysis and numerical simulation

Abstract This article aims to investigate the contact characteristics of mortise and tenon (M&T) joints in the traditional timber structures. In particular, the normal embedded compressive contact between contact surfaces of M&T joint was investigated. Based on basic contact theory and conta...
