Abstract

This paper adresses the approximation of the dynamic impact of thin elastic structures. The principle of the presented method is the use of a singular mass matrix obtained by different discretizations of the deflection and velocity. The obtained semi-discretized problem is proved to be well-posed and energy conserving. The method is applied on some membrane, beam and plate models and associated numerical experiments are discussed.
