Drop Test Setup
If you select a reference plane or planar face, the velocity is applied in the direction normal to the reference plane or the planar...select a reference plane or planar face, the gravity is applied in the direction normal to the reference plane or the planar face...Sets the stiffness per unit area normal to the impact plane

Nonlinear - Advanced Options
Sets stiffness singularity elimination factor (normal solution if set to 1; if less than 1.0, the program...If normal solution fails, trying a different value, for example 0, may help
Static - Options
The software calculates static friction forces by multiplying the normal forces generated at the contacting locations by the specified
