Abstract

An extended finite element method (X-FEM) for classical kinetic friction laws in a multi-material arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (MMALE) formulation is presented. The velocities of the nodes containing more than one material in their support are updated through the nodal accelerations to account for the kinetic friction effects. Numerical results are presented and discussed.
