Abstract
In this paper we present a mortar based method, for frictional two dimensional contact problems. It is based on the work by Tur et al. (Comput Methods Appl Mech Eng 198(37---40):2860---2873, 2009) and uses the same concentrated integration scheme as well as a non regularized tangential contact formulation based on Lagrange multipliers only. We abstract the contact kinematics to a rather synthetic formulation. Therefore we are able to use two different methods of defining the normal field on the discretized surface normal: The popular method of averaged non-mortar side normal and the rather simple non continuous mortar side normal field. The problem is solved with a fixed point Newton---Raphson procedure and for both normal fields the full linearizations are derived. With numerical examples we show the performance of the more concise formulation of the non averaged non continuous mortar side normal field.
