5.3.3 Theoretical Formulation of Tangential Contact Stiffness Two fixture components are in contact at a certain number of asperities due to the inherent roughness of the surface. When they are subjected to tangential forces, the components are mutually constrained through frictional contacts. A frictio...
In case of inactive contact, the collocation-based contact formulation automatically enforces homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions, hence there is no need for segmentation of the contact surfaces. 5 Numerical examples In the previous sections, several contact approaches were introduced. For ease of ...

This protein localizes between transmembrane integrins and actin fibers and was shown to be sensitive to the balance between intracellular and extra- cellular forces, modulating its shape and aggregation during cell SCIENTIFIC REPORTS | 4 : 3830 | DOI: 10.1038/srep03830 4 www.nature.com/scientific...
fiberglass tape, to secure magnets 802 against centrifugal forces generated by rotation. Magnet inner face 810, 810A and corresponding inset surface 805 and 805A may be any configuration, so long as they conform to each other. For example, referring to FIG. 8D, inner face 810A of magnet ...
One of them is that Tγ value is affected by steering forces in a curve negoti- ation, where the contact point moves to the inner face of the high rail. Furthermore, the material properties defined by Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio are being considered for the calculation of contact...
