Contact Sets Examples

It is possible you require more than one contact set.

For example:

  • A part moving on a roller table with 10 rollers. Define one contact set as a solid body contact group. The first group contains the 10 rollers, and the second group contains the lone part. .

  • A group of 4 rubber balls inside a steel box. Define two contact sets:

    • The first set is a solid body contact group: The 4 balls are contained in one group and the box is in the other group.

    • The second set is a solid body contact set containing the four balls. When you create the contact set containing the 4 balls, create one set with 6 contacts and specify the material as rubber-rubber.
