Summary
A combination of a direct method (LU decomposition, for example) and the Gauss-Seidel iterations is employed to solve finite element equations subjected to frictional contact conditions. Developed solutions algorithm appears to be very efficient attaining a rapid convergence at a fractional increase in computing time over the conventional elastic solutions. It is found that Coulomb’s law must be applied in an incremental form for an adequate representation of the friction.
