By a Lavrentiev regularization, the state constraint is transformed to a mixed control-state constraint with bounded Lagrange multiplier. Existence and convergence of the central path are established, and linear convergence of a short-step pathfollowing method is shown. The behaviour of the regularizations are demonstrated by numerical examples.

Up no now, the question of consistency in the case of contact constraints has been discussed for time integrators in function space under the assumption of bounded total variation of the solution. Here, interest focusses on the consistency error of the Newmark scheme in physical energy norm after discretization both in time and in space. The resulting estimate for the local discretization error allows to prove global convergence of the Newmark scheme under an additional assumption on the active contact boundaries.
