Convergence of penalty Robin-Robin domain decomposition methods for   unilateral multibody contact problems of elasticity
  The paper is devoted to the penalty Robin-Robin domain decomposition methods (DDMs), proposed by us for the solution of unilateral multibody contact problems of elasticity. These DDMs are based on the penalty method for variational inequalities and some stationary and nonstationary iterative methods for nonlinear variational equations. The main result of the paper is that we give the mathematical justification of proposed DDMs and prove theorems on their convergence. We also investigate the numerical efficiency of these methods using the finite element approximations.
