    Hi Zdenek,

    If you are trying to view contact force in hyperview, then you can define CONTF output which will give you the contact result to be viewed in hyperview.

    With Format=OPTI, it will write .cntf file which is an ASCII file containing information on  total contact force, normal contact force, tangential contact force, and contact area.

    To know more on this you can refer the below link.

    CONTF (altair.com)

    Thanks
