Contact boundary conditions - roughness

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello,

I am interested in the simulation of contact between two mechanical structures.

I have already seen that comsol have electrical and thermal type contact boundary conditions.

The contact for the latter physics takes into consideration the surface roughness (contact surfaces are not perfectly smooth).

I can't find any equivalent contact boundary condition (with roughness) in order to simulate mechanical behvior.

Any Help?

Thanks Khaled Harmouch
