Kolman, Radek ; Kopačka, Ján ; Gonzalez, J. ; Gabriel, Dušan ; Cho, S.S. ; Plešek, Jiří ; Park, K.C.
In this paper, a recent progress in explicit finite element analysis is discussed. Properties and behaviour of classical explicit time integration in finite element analysis of elastic wave propagation and contact-impact problems based on penalty method in contact-impact problems are summarized. Further, stability properties of explicit time scheme and the penalty method as well as existence of spurious oscillations in transient dynamics are mentioned. The novel and recent improving and progress in explicit analysis based on a local time integration with pullback interpolation for different local stable time step sizes, bipenalty stabilization for enforcing of contact constrains with preserving of stability limit for contact-free problems and using a direct inversion of mass matrix are presented. Properties of the employed methods are shown for one-dimensional cases of wave propagation and contact-impact problems.

Development, assessment and verification of finite element procedures for contact problems
Gabriel, Dušan ; Kopačka, Ján ; Masák, Jan ; Plešek, Jiří
A frictionless three-dimensional contact algorithm based on the pre-discretization penalty formulation was proposed. The algorithm proved to be robust, accurate and symmetry preserving—no master/slave surfaces have been introduced. It was implemented in the finite element code PMD (Package for Machine Design) for the solution of complex engineering problems. The capability of the algorithm was demonstrated in creep analysis of T-piece of the steam distributor of the CHEMOPETROL heating plant T200. Material properties were described by the probabilistic exponential model with damage. The purpose of the analysis was to compare the original version and the proposed design modification applied to one of T-pieces of the distributor when the proposed contact algorithm was employed to simulate the interaction between the collar and the pipe.
