Ginobili,
It shouldn`t matter that some of your face elements are also selected and contacts are created there, in my opinion,
Hi Rahul,
I appreciate your quick reply. Does that mean I can assume that the contact is at least acceptable, and carry on without worrying about the effects on the results - in my case, normal modes - attributable to it? Furthermore, is there a method to check the quality of a contact in Optistruct?
Thanks,
Ginobili
what do you mean by quality of contact? you will have to check the normals of the contacting elements, make sure they are facing each other , that is very important.
I really dont see how contact surfaces created on extra elements affecting your analysis
