Micro Abstract:
We present a residual a posteriori error estimator for frictional,
elasto-plastic two-body contact problems and finite elements of higher order. It is based on a mixed formulation in which the constraints concerning contact, friction and plasticity are captured by Lagrange multipliers. To be able to apply a semi-smooth Newton method we solve a primal-mixed problem and calculate the plastic quantities in a post process. Reliability and suboptimal efficiency of the estimator are shown.
