Talk:Contact dynamics

It can be shown that regularization of contacts indeed corresponds to real material properties, while this wikipedia article indicates the contrary. Much work was also done in this area before Moreau.

The writing style and language of this article edit

This article reads like a research paper, which is not in line with wikipedia's editorial style. It's also very difficult to understand the language.

I'm a native English speaker with experience in mechanical engineering and computer science and I can't understand half of this article, I don't know how someone with experience in only one of those areas stands a chance, never mind a lay-person.

For example, the following sounds like someone just ranting out fictional scientific jargon. "The evaluation of these inequalities/inclusions is commonly done by solving linear (or nonlinear) complementarity problems, by quadratic programming or by transforming the inequality/inclusion problems into projective equations which can be solved iteratively by Jacobi or Gauss–Seidel techniques. The non-smooth approach provides a new modeling approach for mechanical systems with unilateral contacts and friction, which incorporates also the whole classical mechanics subjected to bilateral constraints." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.151.3.161 (talk) 10:48, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
