Specifies the contact tolerance used in Automated Surface Contact Generation (ASCG). The value set defines the maximum normal activation distance. A recommended value is a distance approximately 10% larger than the largest gap you want to be recognized as contact. The default AUTO setting is based on the model reference dimension multiplied by 1.0E-04. Note that specified values are actual distances and are not normalized. For some models (i.e., very large, very small, or with large gaps) the default CONTACTTOL value may not be well suited, therefore it is recommended the analyst define this explicitly. |
