Abstract
A particle approach to a contact mechanics problem is illustrated by simula tion of the motion of a gel which falls on a flat, hard surface. Examples o f gel jiggling are described and discussed. Only scientific PC capabilities are required. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
