The formulation of Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) and a shortcoming of traditional SPH in contact simulation are presented. A contact algorithm is proposed to treat contact phenomenon between two objects. We describe the boundary of the objects with non-mass artificial particles and set vectors normal to the contact surface. Contact criterion using non-mass particles is established in this study. In order to verify the contact algorithm, an algorithm is implemented in to an in-house program; elastic wave propagation is an analysed under low velocity axial impact of two rods. The results show that the contact algorithm eliminates the undesirable phenomena at the contact surface; numerical result with the contact algorithm is compared with theoretical one.

In this paper, efficient and accurate contact search algorithm is proposed for the contact problems by the finite element method. A slave node and a maser contact segment is defined using the side of a finite element on the contact surface. The specific goal is to develop techniques of reducing the nonsmoothness of the contact interactions arising from the finite element discretization of the contact surface. Contact detection is accomplished by monitoring the territory of the slave nodes throughout the calculation for possible penetration of a master surface. To establish the validity of the proposed algorithm, some different process and geometries examples were simulated. Efforts are focused on the error rate that is based on the penetrated area through the simulations fur large deformation with contact surface between deformable bodies. A proposed algorithm offers improvements in contact detection from the simulation results.

In this study, a contact algorithm for the finite element analysis of free surface contact problem in materials forming is presented. The proposed contact algorithm consists of two parts. The first is the contact searching part, and the second, the constraint part. The contact searching algorithm does not require any a priori knowledge of the pairs of contact nodes or segments and the impenetrability constraint is satisfied using the penalty function scheme. void colsure in open-die forging was simulated to verify the accuracy and capability of the currently developed contact algorithm. The simulation results, obtained from ABAQUS simulation, were compared well to the experimental data available in the literature.

본 논문에서는 경계요소법의 평면 접촉해석에 사용될 수 있는 효율적인 접촉면 검출 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 접촉면 검출 알고리즘을 경계요소법에 적용하기 위하여, 경계요소법이 가지는 자료구조를 분석하였다. 경계요소법의 특징 중 하나인 모퉁이 문제를 고려하여 전역검색, 지역검색, 접촉관계식 설정의 3단계로 접촉면 검출기법을 구현하였다. 전역검색은 접촉 주요소, 부요소 개념을 도입하였으며, 지역검색에 있어서는 공간분할기법인 사지트리를 이용하였다. 접촉관계식의 설정을 위하여 요소수준에서 절점의 접촉여부를 검토하고 최종계의 방정식에 구속조건을 할당하도록 하였다. 제시된 알고리즘을 이용한 프로그램의 정확성과 효율성을 입증하기 위하여 수치해석을 실시하여 결과를 비교하였다.

An algorithm is proposed to determine the optimal contact forces of robotic hands, where the soft finger contact as well as the frictional point contact are considered. Especially, the algorithm can be efficiently applied to the case of multi-point contact by inner-link as well as fingertip. To show the validities of the algorithm, several numerical exampies are presented by employing a robotics hand with three fingers each of which has four joints.

A finite element algorithm for consideration of contact constraints is presented. It is characterized by introducing the geometric constraints, resulting from contact conditions, directly into the algebraic system of equations for the incremental displacements of an incremental iterative solution procedure. The usefulness of the proposed algorithm for efficient solutions of contact problems involving large displacements and large strains is demonstrated in the numerical investigation.

A general and efficient algorithm is proposed for the analysis of the frictionless elastic contact problems. It utilizes a simplex-type algorithm with a modified entry rule and incoporates finite element method to obtain flexibility matrices. The algorithmic solution is compared with the Hertzian solution for the contact problem between two cylinders to prove its accuracy and the contact problem between pin and piston rod is solved and compared with the numerical results of Frankavilla and Zienkiewicz to demonstrate the generality and effectiveness of the suggested algorithm. The contact problem between mating involute gear teeth at the worst load position is considered. The computed contact stress is smaller than the result of Hertz's theory applied to the contact between two kinematically equivalent discs and the contact area is larger than that of Hertz's theory.

To improve numerical stability, SEAM element using the linear Coons interpolation has been used. To check the proposed algorithm, both clover cup and L-shape cup deep drawing processes are calculated. The computed results shows that the proposed contact algorithm can be successfully applied for sheet metal forming processes with general shaped tools.

The railway vehicle consists of wires, bodies, bogies and wheelsets, and each part has very complex mechanism. In this paper, wheel-rail contact algorithm is implemented using C++ and inserted into the ODYN which is a dynamic analysis program. To analyze wheel-rail contact mechanism, information such as contact points, contact angle and rolling radius is calculated according to the wheel and rail profile. Using this information, a table for the calculation of the wheel-rail contact analysis is made according to the lateral displacement. And, the creepage and normal force are calculated and a creep force is estimated by the FASTSIM. To verify the reliability of the wheel-rail contact algorithm, results of the program are compared with the ADAMS/Rail and paper. Finally, a wheelset of the railway vehicle is modeled using ODYN and simulated static and dynamic analysis. And, to verify the reliability of the simulation results, a displacement, velocity, acceleration and force are compared with results of ADAMS/Rail.
