Abstract: The aim of this work is to present an efficient methodology to deal with general 3Dcontact problems. This approach embraces three steps: geometrical definition of 3D surfaces, detection of the candidate contact points, and ...

Abstract: This work presents a flexible multibody system model for the inside turning of thinwalled cylinders. The model accounts for the varying input and output behavior of the workpiece due to workpiece rotation and tool feed, ...

Abstract: In this work, MacConaill's classification that the articular surface of the femoral head is better represented by ovoidal shapes rather than purely spherical shapes is computationally tested. To test MacConaill's classification, ...
