Unilateral frictional contact between a rigid wheel traversing on a flexible beam: An analytical investigation

TL;DR: In this paper , a non-linear dynamic solver is proposed to simulate the dynamics of a rigid wheel traversing over a flexible beam involving a unilateral contact at the interface, which is analytically designed to incorporate frictional force acting at the wheel-beam interface along with the possibility of generation of normal gap between the two bodies.

An augmented lagrangian treatment of contact problems involving friction

TL;DR: In this paper, a framework is presented within which the augmented Lagrangians is readily applied to problems involving contact with friction, which is well-suited to finite element implementation, and a set of numerical examples is presented in which the utility of the method is demonstrated even in the presence of finite deformations and inelasticity.
