SLINEMAXDISPTOL

Description Type Default

Specifies the normalized maximum allowable contact surface penetration defined as:

where TMAX is the maximum allowable contact surface penetration, and is the contact surface area.

The recommended range for SLINEMAXDISPTOL is 1.0E-02 to 1.0E-05. Larger values may provide better nonlinear convergence with a possible increase in contact surface penetration.
