TLDR
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.

Computational Contact Mechanics

TL;DR: The mathematical structure of the contact formulation for finite element methods is derived on the basis of a continuum description of contact, and several algorithms related to spatial contact search and fulfillment of the inequality constraints at the contact interface are discussed.

An extended finite element method for modeling crack growth with frictional contact

TL;DR: In this paper, the eXtended Finite Element Method (X-FEM) is used to discretize the equations, allowing for the modeling of cracks whose geometry is independent of the finite element mesh.

Linear and nonlinear programming

TL;DR: Strodiot and Zentralblatt as discussed by the authors introduced the concept of unconstrained optimization, which is a generalization of linear programming, and showed that it is possible to obtain convergence properties for both standard and accelerated steepest descent methods.

Multiplier and gradient methods

TL;DR: The main purpose of this paper is to suggest a method for finding the minimum of a functionf(x) subject to the constraintg(x)=0, which consists of replacingf byF=f+λg+1/2cg2, and computing the appropriate value of the Lagrange multiplier.

Consistent tangent operators for rate-independent elastoplasticity☆

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that consistency between the tangent operator and the integration algorithm employed in the solution of the incremental problem plays crucial role in preserving the quadratic rate of asymptotic convergence of iterative solution schemes based upon Newton's method.
