Hello,
I want to get output for the scalar integration of the contact pressure over the surface.
(Force due to pressure) Is there any output request to get this in Opti struct solver? Thanks,
Normal force is equal to Abaqus CFNM.
CICPS output is available from Optistruct version 2025.1 and on.
You can request it via CONTF(OPTI,CICPS)=ALL.
See documentation page:

Will it be same as normal contact force from *.cntf file?
Thank you so much!
