What is the contact status (Normal) in Hyperview?
Can I check the contact force validation from contact status?
For example, whether contact force value is right or not.
Hi,
Contact Status (Normal) shows whether defined contact is in open, closed or tied status at any particular load increment (0- Open contact; 1-Tie Contact).
Contact Status (Tangent) shows whether contact is in stick or slide status. Contact Status (Normal) is related to perpendicular displacement of contact surfaces while contact status (Tangent) is for tangential displacement of contact surfaces.
Thank You
if you request CONTF in OptiStruct model, you will get both contact status and contact forces~/pressures.
You can request in both H3D (visual) and OPTI (summation in ascii text) format.
