Components of Contact-Impact Methods<br />

Contact-impact algorithms usually consist of<br />

two main components:<br />

• Contact detection module, e.g. penetration<br />

detector (~heavy geometrical computations)<br />

• Contact enforcement technique, e.g. penalty,<br />

Lagrange multipliers, …<br />

Some Drawbacks of Conventional Techniques<br />

• Lack of symmetry (master/slave)<br />

• Geometrically complex (contact detection)<br />

• Complicated input data<br />

• Ambiguous contact cases:<br />

Surface-to-surface<br />

Edge-to-surface<br />

Edge-to-edge …<br />
