Féderation de recherche Fabri de Peiresc

CONFERENCE TOPICS
The congress addresses a wide panorama of topics in the area of contact mechanics in order to reinforce the interactions and collaborations between various communities :

• models, interface laws,wear, tribological modeling, cohesive zone models, rolling ;
• emerging computational approaches : methods, algorithms and numerical analysis ;
• mathematical analysis ;
• dynamic contact problems, instabilities ;
• micromechanics of contact and multiscale approaches ;
• multiphysics and thermomechanical coupling ;
• granular materials and rigid bodies ;
• contact modeling in mechanical and civil engineering, biomechanics and geomechanics.
