    Abstract    
The objective in this paper is to present some theoretical insight and valuable numerical experiences for the analysis of contact problems. We review the theoretical basis of the constraint function method for general contact problems and discuss some important characteristics of the method. In the presentation, we consider static and dynamic conditions. We then give numerical experiences with the method through the solution of some demonstrative test problems and through the results obtained in some industrial analysis cases.
