NormalMortarLMMechanicalContact
Similar to the NormalNodalLMMechanicalContact
object except the constraints are enforced in an integral way via the mortar method as opposed to pointwise at nodes. Some numerical experiments suggest that the integral method of enforcing normal contact constraints displays worse non-linear convergence than the pointwise method.
Enforces the normal contact complementarity conditions in a mortar discretization
Input Parameters
- compute_lm_residualsTrueWhether to compute Lagrange Multiplier residuals
Default:True
C++ Type:bool
Description:Whether to compute Lagrange Multiplier residuals
- compute_primal_residualsTrueWhether to compute residuals for the primal variable.
Default:True
C++ Type:bool
Description:Whether to compute residuals for the primal variable.
- interpolate_normalsTrueWhether to interpolate the nodal normals (e.g. classic idea of evaluating field at quadrature points). If this is set to false, then non-interpolated nodal normals will be used, and then the _normals member should be indexed with _i instead of _qp
Default:True
C++ Type:bool
Description:Whether to interpolate the nodal normals (e.g. classic idea of evaluating field at quadrature points). If this is set to false, then non-interpolated nodal normals will be used, and then the _normals member should be indexed with _i instead of _qp
- ncp_function_typeminThe type of the nonlinear complimentarity function; options are min or fb where fb stands for Fischer-Burmeister
Default:min
C++ Type:MooseEnum
Description:The type of the nonlinear complimentarity function; options are min or fb where fb stands for Fischer-Burmeister
- periodicFalseWhether this constraint is going to be used to enforce a periodic condition. This has the effect of changing the normals vector for projection from outward to inward facing
Default:False
C++ Type:bool
Description:Whether this constraint is going to be used to enforce a periodic condition. This has the effect of changing the normals vector for projection from outward to inward facing
- primary_disp_yThe y displacement variable on the primary face
C++ Type:NonlinearVariableName
Description:The y displacement variable on the primary face
- primary_variablePrimal variable on primary surface. If this parameter is not provided then the primary variable will be initialized to the secondary variable
C++ Type:VariableName
Description:Primal variable on primary surface. If this parameter is not provided then the primary variable will be initialized to the secondary variable
- prop_getter_suffixAn optional suffix parameter that can be appended to any attempt to retrieve/get material properties. The suffix will be prepended with a '_' character.
C++ Type:MaterialPropertyName
Description:An optional suffix parameter that can be appended to any attempt to retrieve/get material properties. The suffix will be prepended with a '_' character.
- secondary_disp_yThe y displacement variable on the secondary face
C++ Type:NonlinearVariableName
Description:The y displacement variable on the secondary face
- secondary_variablePrimal variable on secondary surface.
C++ Type:VariableName
Description:Primal variable on secondary surface.
- variableThe name of the lagrange multiplier variable that this constraint is applied to. This parameter may not be supplied in the case of using penalty methods for example
C++ Type:NonlinearVariableName
Description:The name of the lagrange multiplier variable that this constraint is applied to. This parameter may not be supplied in the case of using penalty methods for example
Optional Parameters
- control_tagsAdds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.

Description:Adds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.
- enableTrueSet the enabled status of the MooseObject.
Default:True
C++ Type:bool
Description:Set the enabled status of the MooseObject.
- implicitTrueDetermines whether this object is calculated using an implicit or explicit form
Default:True
C++ Type:bool
Description:Determines whether this object is calculated using an implicit or explicit form
- seed0The seed for the master random number generator
Default:0
C++ Type:unsigned int
Description:The seed for the master random number generator
- use_displaced_meshFalseWhether or not this object should use the displaced mesh for computation. Note that in the case this is true but no displacements are provided in the Mesh block the undisplaced mesh will still be used.
Default:False
C++ Type:bool
Description:Whether or not this object should use the displaced mesh for computation. Note that in the case this is true but no displacements are provided in the Mesh block the undisplaced mesh will still be used.
