v5.03.100 SDNV100 - Impact of a beam on a rigid wall

Summary

This problem corresponds to a direct transitory analysis of a non-linear system modelled in volume elements. A first slender structure (beam) of square cross section is driven by an initial speed and strikes a rigid wall. Non-linearity comes from the contact conditions between the structure and the wall.
