Hello everybody,
How to define contact node to node in Hypermesh, solver is Optisrtuct. Is it possible?
Thank you
Node to Node contact is not available as a pure 'Contact'.
But you can achieve this using CGAP/PGAP.
I believe there are a few tutorials and the documentation is clear enough.
But essentially you create a gap element, and assign a PGAP property defining u0 (gap aperture) and K0/K1 stiffness for open/close gap.
In this case you need to perform a NLSTAT loadstep.
perfect, thank you!
