Contact analysis

2D multi-element plane strain tests:

- contact patch test

- rigid punch on deformable foundation

- Hertzian contact

- sliding wedge with linear springs

- bending of a plate over a stiff cylinder

- sliding and rolling of a ring on a rigid surface

2D multi-element plane stress tests:

- cantilevered beam loaded against a rigid curvilinear surface

2D solid multi-element tests:

- two contacting rings

- buckling of a curved column with self-contact

2D axisymmetric multi-element tests:
