In contact mechanics, a problem might arise when at least one of the contacting bodies is not fully fixed, i.e. the corresponding functional is semicoercive. The paper will deal with numerical methods for these cases. The fundamental Uzawa method for a class of problems does not converge...

Abnormality in human joint biomechanics is the main cause of the degenerative disease development, therefore the description and correction of the joint biomechanics is essential for adequate treatment. We present an approach how to obtain the data of a patient and how to use these data...
