Analysis of Continuous and Discontinuous Cases of a Contact Problem Using Analytical Method and FEM

Abstract In this paper, continuous and discontinuous cases of a contact problem for two elastic layers supported by a Winkler foundation are analyzed using both analytical method and finite element method. In the analyses, it is assumed that all surfaces are frictionless, and only compressive normal...
