Hi Kartik,
I doubt whether Type 7 will work for this contact. You may have to try with Type 11 contact.
Please go through https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLGwVwYSmt4&t=56s&index=4&list=PLQ7KUGFuVz4u5y3SvIEIU07427-gATaG6 which is a webinar on RADIOSS and chapter 4 deals with contacts.

Hi George P Johnson,
Thank you for your immediate reply. I can see you have defined 2 contacts.
I have a few queries below:
- How is the predefined initial stiffness of 5000 and its stiffness factor 0.8 assumed.
- Why the use of multiple contacts in the simulation? Isn't type 11 sufficient.
- Also is there anything else i.e modified?

HI,
Sorry, i forgot to change this. This simulation will work without STMIN and STFAC values. As a trial for the previous run I gave these values. Please remove it and run the analysis.
The edge to edge interface was not perfectly working and so Type 7 was also introduced with Type 11. No other changes were made,
