NITERCUPDATE

Description Type Default

Nonlinear solver contact stiffness update option. Controls the nonlinear contact stiffness update strategy. The value set is the number of iterations before the contact stiffness is updated. The AUTO setting varies the value automatically during nonlinear iteration. A zero setting will result in a stiffness update if any contact element or segment has a status change during the nonlinear iteration sequence.
