Ansys APDL language provides an email function available to users in Mechanical APDL as a command and in Workbench Mechanical via inserted Command Snippets.“ There is too much penetration 594 contact points of the 3D contact elements“.contact angle. I want to push the gasket horizontally (from right to left) against the frame in order to verify whether. The simulation I'm running is quite simple: A rigid 'u-shaped' frame rigidly constrained and a straight rubber gasket moving towards it. I'm having a serious issue in making ANSYS Mechanical detect a contact. Contact partially not detected.
Some people get confused as to reason and purpose of this message. Messages regarding contact penetration such as the one shown above are often seen during ANSYS structural simulations. Please i want to ask which suitable contact angle can wet wall surface and is this suitable for multiphase flow modelling where flow regimes are important. And also that at contact angle of 30 deg (air) and 150 deg (water) , the wall is not also wet.
With this approach the nodes on the interfacing bodies are allowed to interpenetrate. In other words the model does not converge to a solution.One way to address the issue of chattering is by introducing the concept of contact penetration. This type of contact can sometimes result in a situation which is called “ chattering” – A contact continues to cycle between open and closed states and the solver is unable to settle on a final contact state resulting from the applied loads and boundary conditions. A contact point is either open (not in contact) or closed (in contact).
