Nonlinear mixed finite element analysis for contact problems by a penalty constraint technique
<p>A nonlinear mixed finite element formulation based on the Hellinger-Reissner variational principle is developed for planar contact stress analysis. The formulation is based on the updated Lagrangian approach and accounts for geometric nonlinearity. In the mixed model, both displacements and...
