<strong>Contact</strong> Trouble Shooting Guide<br />
• All contact convergence problems fall in one of two<br />
categories (or both):<br />
1. Failure to detect contact resulting in rigid body<br />
motion.<br />
2. <strong>Contact</strong> achieved, but failure to reduce out-ofbalance<br />
residual <strong>for</strong>ces below convergence<br />
criteria.<br />
• Use the output to determine which problem you<br />
have! The recommended corrective actions are<br />
different <strong>for</strong> each problem.<br />
