We introduce a variational formulation for simulating sticky interactions between elastoplastic solids. Our method brings a wider range of material behaviors into the reach of the Incremental Potential Contact (IPC) solver recently developed by [1]. Extending IPC requires several contributions. We first augment IPC with the classical Raous-Cangemi-Cocou (RCC) adhesion model. This allows us to robustly simulate the sticky interactions between arbitrary codimensional-0, 1, and 2 geometries. To enable user-fri
