Abstract
- In this paper we present an abstract nonsmooth optimization problem for which we recall existence and uniqueness results. We show a numerical scheme to approximate its solution. The theory is later applied to a sample static contact problem that describes an elastic body in frictional contact with a foundation. This problem leads to a hemivariational inequality which we solve numerically. Finally, we compare three computational methods of solving contact mechanical problems: the direct optimization method, the augmented Lagrangian method and the primal–dual active set strategy. • Mathematical modeling of the body's behavior on the contact boundary is challenging. • Contact phenomena described by nonmonotone laws require special numerical treatment. • Nonsmooth nonconvex hemivariational problems need sophisticated methods. • Knowing the properties of algorithms for specific problems is crucial in applications.
