Multi-body Contact Analysis

Multi-Body Contact Analysis is a computational framework within contact mechanics that models and analyzes the interactions, forces, and motions among multiple distinct bodies in simultaneous or sequential contact, distinguished from simpler contact models by its capacity to handle complex, coupled, and non-pairwise interaction topologies.
