Abstract
The interest in problems of contact mechanics came up in the sixties with questions of statics and elastomechanics. Most of the mathematical tools were developed and applied in those fields. With increasing pressure from the practical side of vibration and noise connected with contact processes methods of multibody dynamics with unilateral constraints have been elaborated. The paper gives a review of these activities mainly based on findings from the authors’ institute.
