Time stepping schemes are generally easy enough that they are not implemented in the library itself, but in user code. But there are numerous time dependent programs that you can take a look at. > 2) I have seen some some impact/contact problems in the step tutorials, > would this work in dynamics as well? You'd have to write a time loop around it. In essence, you have to solve a nonlinear contact problem in each time step, for which there are tutorial programs. Then you move one time step forward which changes the position of the impactor and you have to solve a nonlinear contact problem again (for which you can use the previous state as a good initial guess). > 3) Does deal ii support element erosion based on the internal state of > an element? Sort of. You will want to take a look at step-46, which shows how you can switch an equation on/off on individual cells.
