The non-smooth contact dynamics method
Open accessAbstract
The main features of the Non-Smooth Contact Dynamics method are presented in this paper, the use of the dynamical equation, the non-smooth modelling of unilateral contact and Coulomb's law, fully implicit algorithms to solve the dynamical frictional contact problem for systems with numerous contacting points, in particular large collections of rigid or deformable bodies. Emphasis is put on contact between deformable bodies. Illustrating numerical simulation examples are given for granular materials, deep drawing and buildings made of stone blocks.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
