Account for accelerations in reaction forces

Open btalamini opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

The reaction force calculation in the solid mechanics module assumes that the accelerations are zero:

This is fine for quasi-statics, but for dynamics, we must pass the updated accelerations in the second slot. It's not clear how to get this quantity out of the ODE solvers at the moment.
