A nonlinear joint elements is developed to simulate the opening and closing of contraction joints The element has a nonlinear force-displacement relationship which must be accounted for in the solution for dynamic response of gravity dam with contraction joints A special component modal synthesis approach is suggested to apply in the numerical procedure for dynamic analysis of nonlinear structural systems The solution time can be greatly reduced by using this approach The result of a numerical example shows that the opening and closing of the contraction joints may amplify the seismic response of gravity dam.
