Is it impossible to set perfectly no relative motion using /INTER/TYPE2?

Hi,

 

In figure, two 1T shells are fixed on one edge. (Gap between 2 shells is 1.1)

Interface between top and bottom shells is modeled by using /INTER/TYPE2.

To set no relative motion, setting in type2 is default.

Concentrated load is excited at node number 7 on top shell. Load curve and scale are as follows. (The load has effect like Impact.)

I think that relative displacement between node 7 and 128 is perfectly zero because I use type2 default.

However, in x,y,z direction, relative displacement occurs.

It looks like almost zero but I want perfectly no relative motion. 

How can I set that?

 

Another question is 

 

Physically the plate is excited by impact, acceleration of plate is decayed

 

I don't use damping, so I think acceleration of some node is decayed to steady state response.

 

But acceleration of node 7 is like this. Response is increased. Why???
