This model clearly illustrates the aspects to be considered when modeling contact solids – from boundary lines and side surfaces to the integration of an FE mesh. The illustration also contains an example modeling rule and an indication of an error (Error No. 2334). The linked image provides additional visual information on the practical implementation of contact solid concepts.
