We present a method for simulating rigid multibody dynamics with joints, contact, and friction. In this work, the nonsmooth contact and frictional constraints are represented by h...
The elastic-mode formulation of the problem of minimizing a nonlinear function subject to equilibrium constraints has appealing local properties in that, for a finite value of the...
Motivated by some results for linear programs and complementarity problems, this paper gives some new characterizations of the central path conditions for semidefinite programs. Ex...
Focus in the paper is on the definition of linear bilevel programming problems, the existence of optimal solutions and necessary as well as sufficient optimality conditions. In th...
We consider the problem of finding (possibly non connected) discrete surfaces spanning a finite set of discrete boundary curves in the three-dimensional space and minimizing (glo...
