How "kinematic" rigid bodies are implemented in physics engines
In most physics engines there's this concept of "static" bodies, which act as rigid bodies with infinite mass. Then there are "kinematic" bodies that act as static bodies, but ...

Distributed Lagrange multiplier approach to impose constraint in Poisson equation
I'm trying to understand how Lagrange multipliers are applied in order to impose constraints in PDEs. Consider $B \subset \Omega$. For instance, a square inside another square domain $\Omega$. Let's ...

Applying displacement control loading using lagrange multipliers in the material non-linear finite element method
Hi I am trying to implement a simple plasticity based finite element code. I am not clear how to set up displacement control applied through Lagrange multipliers. In case of a linear problem, I did ...

inclined/general Dirichlet boundary conditions
For simpilcity, consider a single quad linear elasticity finite element in 2D. The Dirichlet boundary conditions on node 1 and node 2 are easy to implement and can be handled in the standard way. ...
