This volume contains papers presented at the IUTAM Symposium on
unilateral multibody contacts. Multibody systems very often include
phenomena like impacts, stick-slip or time-variant kinematical
loops which generate an unsteady behaviour of motion. Each of these
unilateral phenomena alone leads to more complexity in analyzing
the motion, and the situation becomes worse if such processes take
place in multiple contacts of a multibody configuration, especially
if these contacts are not decoupled by some force laws, for
example. For these cases the complementary properties of contact
dynamics and as a consequence the application of complementary
algorithms allows the correct and consistent evaluation of the new
constraint situation after each new contact event and avoids
extensive combinational searches. The time-variant structure of
such mechanical systems and thus the state-dependent change of the
constraint combinations and the equations of motion afford special
analytical and numerical treatment. Mathematical aspects can be
characterized by linear complementarity problems (LCP) for plane
contacts and by nonlinear complementarity problems (NLCP), homotopy
or projection methods for spatial contacts. Worldwide, there exists
an increasing scientific community dealing with these problems
where, especially in Europe, the efforts are concentrated on the
mathematical foundation, on applications for multibody dynamics and
for FE-problems. This volume will be of interest to researchers and
engineers in the field of applied mathematics, physical and
mechanical sciences, and engineering.
