Contact mechanics challenge results: a follow up discussion

05.02.2018 tribonet 563 Views

In 2015 Prof. Martin Müser of Saarland University in Saarbrücken, Germany initiated a contact mechanics challenge with a goal to provide tribologists with benchmarks to decide which method is the most appropriate for a particular problem. […]
