Research into contact problems continues to produce a rapidly growing body of knowledge. Recognizing the need for a single, concise source of information on models and analysis of contact problems, accomplished experts Sofonea, Han, and Shillor carefully selected several models and thoroughly study them in Analysis and Approximation of Contact Problems with Adhesion or Damage . The book describes... Read more

Biography
Mircea Sofonea, Weimin Han, Meir Shillor
“This book summarizes and completes the work of the authors on the topic of dynamic and quasistatic contact problems with adhesion or damage of viscoelastic structures in recent years. Different models involving adhesion and material damages are presented with both the theoretical result (existence and uniqueness of a weak solution) and the numerical analysis result (optimal convergence of discrete approximation by finite element methods) in a unified framework. The book is well presented and easy to read.”
