Keywords:
obstacle problem; variational formulation; semi-coercive problem; finite elements; semismooth Newton method; method of successive approximations
Summary:
The paper deals with existence and uniqueness results and with the numerical solution of the nonsmooth variational problem describing a deflection of a thin annular plate with Neumann boundary conditions. Various types of the subsoil and the obstacle which influence the plate deformation are considered. Numerical experiments compare two different algorithms.
