Description:<br />
A shell element drops and rebounds on an elastic plate.<br />
Model:<br />
The plate measures 40 × 40 × 1 mm 3 and contains 16 shell elements. The dropped shell element<br />
has a side length of 10 mm, a thickness of 2 mm and drop height of 10 mm. All shell elements are<br />
elastic with Belytschko-Tsay formulation. The dropped shell element has an initial velocity of<br />
100,000 mm/second vertically towards the plate. The calculations terminate at 0.0002 seconds.<br />
Input:<br />
All nodes have an initial velocity as specified above. (*INITIAL_VELOCITY). Contact types 3,<br />
5 and 10 use the dropped shell element as slave side and the four shell elements in the center of the<br />
plate as master side.<br />
Type 3 contact is a two way surface to surface algorithm. The segments on the slave side are<br />
checked for penetration of the master segment then the opposite search takes place.<br />
Type 4 is a single surface algorithm. The nodes of all segments are checked for penetration of all<br />
segments.<br />
Type 5 is a node to surface one way algorithm. The program checks that no slave node penetrates<br />
any master segment.<br />
Type 10 converts surface to surface definition into a node to surface definition.<br />
Type 13 is a more robust version of the single surface algorithm. It works especially well in the<br />
contact in airbag unfolding problems.<br />
