contents Affine Body Dynamics (ABD) within the Incremental Potential Contact (IPC) framework provides accurate simulation of extremely stiff solids exhibiting near-rigid behavior, with strict non-penetration guarantees. However, IPC's globally coupled barrier constraints hinder scalable execution across multiple GPUs and compute nodes. We propose a distributed formulation of ABD using a consensus-based ADMM scheme. Each compute node solves its local ABD subproblem in parallel, followed by a global consensus step that enforces consistency among shared boundary bodies. The proposed method preserves IPC-level robustness and global consistency under distributed execution. Experiments demonstrate stable convergence, non-penetration, and efficient scaling on large-scale scenes across multiple nodes.
