  • Abstract
    This paper deals with two related phenomena that may occur in frictional contact problems: bifurcations in quasi-static paths and instability of equilibrium states. We will focus on the numerical computation of solutions of the problems that can capture those phenomena: the rate problem and the directional instability problem.
