Right.

In libMesh

Thanks for all your responses,
Roy, what you said is true about real elastic contact. My implementation(& my
geometry) for elastic-rigid contact problem is still very elementary. If
someone wanted to do a real elastic contact with for example "conforming
profiles" (e.g. a ball on a curve or so

Hi Ataollah,
this type of problem is indeed called a 'contact problem'. I don't
know how to solve them, neither in libmesh nor otherwise. Anyways,
here a short recent discussion about it on libmesh-users:

Dear all,
I need some advice on how to implement an inhomogeneous Dirichlet BC for
elastic-rigid contact. This BC is a bit weird since it doesn't apply to all of
the faces of a boundary_id rather it applies to faces within the contact range
(changes with time) and all the other faces should hav
