This book contains the proceedings of the IUTAM Symposium held in Hanover, Germany, in November 2006. Coverage includes new mathematical techniques like multi-level approaches, new discretization techniques like the mortar-method, advanced applications of unilateral contact to masonry structures, decohesion analysis and tractive rolling of tires.

It provides a good overview of modern techniques and state-of-the-art discretizations schemes applied in contact mechanics. Coverage will stimulate future collaboration in science related to computational contact mechanics and in the organization of minisymposia and workshops in the area contact mechanics.

The IUTAM Symposium brought together scientists who work on the frontier of research in computational contact mechanics or in closely related subjects. At the meeting, 37 scientists presented their newest findings in the area of discretization techniques for contact, algorithms and interesting numerical simulations of contact problems.
