Helpful Hints and Tips: Improving Multi-Body Contact Efficiency

Abstract: Several approaches for reducing computational requirements for multi-body contact solutions without significantly affecting the data of interest are explored: reducing the number of contact iterations and hand-meshing simple parts.

Testimonials

  • “In the case of the through crack configuration, the comparison of experimental and StressCheck® derived geometry factors showed a close correlation and were an improvement to solutions provided in AFGROW at the time. Based on the results of this research, StressCheck® pin-loaded lug geometry factors have since been incorporated into the AFGROW software.”
