Implicit nonlinear complementarity: A new approach to contact dynamics
— Contact dynamics are commonly formulated as a linear complementarity problem. While this approach is superior to earlier spring-damper models, it can be inaccurate due to pyram...

An Implicit Time-Stepping Method for Multibody Systems with Intermittent Contact
— In this paper we present an implicit time-stepping scheme for multibody systems with intermittent contact by incorporating the contact constraints as a set of complementarity a...

A constraint-based approach to rigid body dynamics for virtual reality applications
The GALILEO-system is a developmental state-of-the-art rigid body simulation tool with a strong bias to the simulation of unilateral contacts for virtual reality applications. On ...

Optimization on a Budget: A Reinforcement Learning Approach
Many popular optimization algorithms, like the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm (LMA), use heuristic-based "controllers" that modulate the behavior of the optimizer during ...
