It is well known that the solution of an elastica subjected to end loads can be obtained in terms of elliptic functions. In the present paper, the combined problem of elastic contact between uniform circular rings or cylinders is reduced to a set of end-loaded elasticas. The approach is demonstrated by finding the complete solution in closed form for two unequal rings pressed between rigid anvils of constant curvature. Numerical results are obtained for the set of problems of two rings with equal stiffness but unequal radii compressed between two rigid flat plates.

In this work, the Duffing’s type analytical frequency–amplitude relationship for nonlinear oscillators is derived by using Hés formulation and Jacobi elliptic functions. Comparison of the numerical results obtained from the derived analytical expression using Jacobi elliptic functions with respect to the exact ones is performed by considering weak and strong Duffing’s nonlinear oscillators.

Paper concerns the plane-strain problem of a rigid, thin, rounded inclusion pressed between two isotropic elastic half planes with different elastic constants. Required to find the extents of the contact regions between each plane and the inclusion, and the contact stress distributions. The governing integral equations are solved approximately by using Chebyshev expansions. Numerical results are presented.

We investigate the DC pension manager’s portfolio problem when the manager is remunerated through two schemes for DC pension managerial compensation under loss aversion and minimum guarantee. We apply the concavification technique and a static Lagrangian technique to solve the problem and derive the closed-form representation of the optimal wealth and portfolio processes. Theoretical and numerical results show that the incentive schemes can significantly impact the distribution of the optimal terminal wealth.

A multi-scale mathematical model is used to study the effect of surface roughness on the adhesion and friction of microfibers engaged in side contact. Results are compared to closed-form analytic approximations derived from linear elastic contact mechanics.
