This special topic volume is a compilation of works contributed by experts from the international scientific community in the field of wear and contact mechanics. The papers presented in this volume cover different aspects of the current areas of research in wear and contact mechanics using new innovative theoretical, experimental and computational approaches. Numerical formulations are based on the finite element method (FEM) or the boundary element method (BEM) and their variants, i.E., isogeometric analysis, p-version of finite elements and symmetric galerkin boundary elements.
