Micro Abstract:
Usage of standard mass matrices together with implicit time integration leads to temporal oscillations of contact forces and losses/gains of energy at each contact event. Redistribution of the mass from nodes that are potentially coming into contact and removing the term corresponding to contact forces from the predictor of the Newmark method alleviates both problems. In this contribution a mass redistribution for solid isogeometric FE’s is presented and results of numerical tests are discussed.
