This is the second edition of a valuable reference source for numerical simulations of contact mechanics useful in fields like civil engineering, car design, aeronautics, metal forming, or biomechanics. Boundary value problems involving contact are of great importance in industrial applications in engineering such as bearings, metal forming processes, rubber seals, drilling problems, crash analysis of cars, rolling contact between car tires and the road, cooling of electronic devices. Other applications are related to biomechanical engineering design where human joints, and implants of teeth are of consideration.

Industry Reviews

From the reviews of the second edition:

"The book is not simply a monograph reviewing the author's distinguished research career, but a true textbook covering the research of the major players in computational contact mechanics over the last 25 years and offers an extensive list of references. ... If I were given the opportunity to teach an advanced special topics course on finite element methods, I wouldn't hesitate to use this book. For a researcher ... the text provides an excellent review." (David J. Benson, SIAM Review, Vol. 49 (2), 2007)
