It should not be too difficult to get the plastic work (alias the energy dissipated). All we need, I think, is to know the shear displacement at current and previous time step, the shear force and the maximum shear displacement after that we slip. In formula the plastic work would read W_plastic = Fs*(us_t - us,max_t) Then we can sum up the above one among all the contacts and over the simulation time. To compute _us,max_ should I just read us,max_t = Fs_max/ks per each time step (as Fn could increase, decrease.. )?
