Contact
Different kinds of contact
Contact IA shell element drops and rebounds on an elastic plate. |
EdgeA corrugated plate strikes a flat plate from opposite directions. |
EntityA rigid sphere drops onto an elastic plate. The sphere contains shell elements automatically generated with a "Geometric Contact Entity" spherical surface. |
ErodingA projectile strikes a plate at a critical angle. |
Tied 1A sphere impacts a plate at high speed causing failure of the plate. This model can be used to show how different contacts can behave differently in a rather simple model. Instructions of this are explained in the header of the input deck. |
Tied 2A shell element drops onto and then rebounds from, a hollow box that is tied to an elastic plate. |
