Problem description

Contact problems are highly nonlinear and may lead to complex and inefficient simulations In particular, high sensitivity of contact simulations when large slidings occur on curved contact interfaces discontinuity of the orientation of the normal to the contact surface (facetization) non smooth approximation of the gap function mesh refinement may not be a solution when large models are involved

Contact normal orientation approximation

Contact normal orientation approximation

Both the addition of B-spline over linear elements and the use of Hermite elements allow for significant improvements of the gap inaccuracy and the contact normal orientation error. The choice of the mesh parameters for our study is driven by the following conditions: maximum gap error must be gmax < 1% of the outer radius of the ring convergence must be observed for static simulations (sensitive bending of structures modeled with Q4 elements) Mesh parameters: 10×8

Introduction C1−continuous methods:Hermite and B-splines Large slidings cases Conclusion

Conclusion

B-splines and Hermite elements allow for an important reduction of geometrical errors Both methods ensure contact normal orientation continuity It has been shown that when large slidings occur, discontinuous displacements and efforts appear due to discretization errors Using a smoothing method not only allow for the suppression of these discontinuities but may also allow for mesh size reduction In 2D, Hermite elements allow for a significant diminution of the number of dof Future work: Dynamic simulations must be carried out to highlight the consequences of displacements and efforts discontinuities 3D simulations on industrial models .
