I am new to Simlab and not aware about the contacts. Can you share how to give the NL contact in simlab?
Altair EmployeeDepending on what you need, and your loadings, you could just create tie contacts for the bolts, or just use rigids+Beam for these bolts, and NL contacts (friction) for the mating parts.
