Abstract: Aiming at problem of calculation errors and constraint violation in numerical simulation for dynamics of unilateral constraint such as contact and collision, the error projection correction methods were put forward. On the basis of dynamical behavior of unilateral constraint described by linear programming model, mixed linear complementarity dynamics was built. Numerical simulation methods for the mixed linear complementarity dynamics were derived. In order to reduce calculation error and constraint violation caused by this error in the numerical simulation, an error correction method was built for correcting position and velocity error of numerical solution on the base of bilateral constraint model, then solving precision of unilateral constraint dynamics was improved. The correction method was verified by example and the results show that this correction method is able to improve effectively numerical simulation accuracy of unilateral constraint dynamics.
