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 Active-Set Newton Method for Mathematical Programs with Complementarity Constraints
For a mathematical program with complementarity constraints (MPCC), we propose an active-set Newton method, which has the property of local quadratic convergence under the MPCC lin...

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...
