TL;DR: In this article, a variational inequality formulation for linear elastic contact problems with friction is presented, where the contact surface is constant during the loading history, and the conditions under which this procedure defines a unique solution map which describes the evolution of contact stresses and displacements for a prescribed load history.

TL;DR: In this paper, some procedures for obtaining accurate boundary element solutions to problems of elastodynamics at moderate to high frequencies are described. And the use of these procedures in solving transient problems via Fourier transform inversion is illustrated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the fluid-structure interaction of fluid-coupled concentric cylindrical shells is reviewed and a coupled finite element method which considers the sloshing effect is developed for the dynamic analysis of liquid-filled systems with internal components.

TL;DR: In this article, a hybrid-stress formulation of isoparametric elements for the analysis of moderately thick and thin multilayer laminated composite plates is presented, where all components of stress are included and are related to a set of laminate stress parameters.

TL;DR: The present work may be considered as an encouraging first step towards the development of the Tau-lines approach into a useful and efficient computational tool for the numerical treatment of problems in fracture mechanics.

TL;DR: In this article, the standard isoparametric Q 1 × Q 0 velocity pressure finite element method for solving viscous flow problems leads to a fully and optimally convergent sequence of approximations, if an appropriate quadrangulation of the domain is used.
