An Application of Isogeometric Analysis and Boundary Integral Element Method for Solving Nonlinear Contact Problems
A novel method to solve nonlinear contact between two bodies with plane strain behavior is presented in this paper. This method is based on the Boundary Integral Equation (BIE) and the Isogeometric Analysis (IGA). Unlike works that divide the boundary into elements, this method evaluates it as a sin...
