Surface to Surface Contact exist??
« on: July 20, 2018, 01:36:49 PM »
Dear FEAP Users,

does a surface to surface contact exist in feap 8.5? If i understand page 160 in the manual correct, the answer should be: No.

Thank you very much for you help in advance.

There is no surface to surface contact.  The only interface that is surface treated is the 2-d tied condition.  It is implemented in the contact module but does not do contact.
