# This element has been developed on top of the “zeroLengthContact3D”.

It includes the definition of retained and constrained nodes, the number of degrees of freedom in the domain, etc.
# Regarding the number of degrees of freedom (DOF), the end nodes of this element should be defined in 3DOF domain. For getting information on how to use 3DOF and 6DOF domain together, please refer to OpenSees documentation and forums or see the zip file provided in the EXAMPLES section below.

# For simulating a surface-to-surface contact, the element can be defined for connecting the nodes on constrained surface to the nodes on retained surface.
# The element was found to be fast-converging and eliminating the need for extra elements and nodes in the modeling process.

# This element adds the capabilities of [[ Impact_Material | “ImpactMaterial” ]] to “zeroLengthContact3D”, without the need for extra nodes and elements in the modeling process. That is the capability of having an "initial gap" in the normal direction and also the capability of considering energy dissipation due to impact in the normal direction.

element zeroLengthImpact3D $tag $cNode $rNode $direction $initGap $frictionRatio $Kt $Kn $Kn2 $Delta_y $cohesion
$tag Unique element object tag
$cNode Constrained node tag
$rNode Retained node tag
$direction

1 if out-normal vector of master plane points to +X direction

2 if out-normal vector of master plane points to +Y direction

$Kn2 Penalty in normal direction after yielding based on Hertz impact model
$Delta_y Yield deformation based on Hertz impact model
$cohesion Cohesion, if no cohesion, it is zero

NOTES:

  1. This element has been developed on top of the “zeroLengthContact3D”. All the notes available in “zeroLengthContact3D” wiki page would apply to this element as well. It includes the definition of retained and constrained nodes, the number of degrees of freedom in the domain, etc.
  2. Regarding the number of degrees of freedom (DOF), the end nodes of this element should be defined in 3DOF domain. For getting information on how to use 3DOF and 6DOF domain together, please refer to OpenSees documentation and forums or see the zip file provided in the EXAMPLES section below.
  3. This element adds the capabilities of “ImpactMaterial” to “zeroLengthContact3D.”
  4. For simulating a surface-to-surface contact, the element can be defined for connecting the nodes on constrained surface to the nodes on retained surface.
  5. The element was found to be fast-converging and eliminating the need for extra elements and nodes in the modeling process.
