Type 6: *CONTACT_TIED_NODES_TO_SURFACE<br />

Type o6: *CONTACT_TIED_NODES_TO_SURFACE_OFFSET<br />

These are the same as types 2 and o2 except that the slave side is defined by individual nodes<br />

instead of segments.<br />

SHELL EDGE TIED TO SHELL SURFACE<br />

Type 7: *CONTACT_TIED_SHELL_EDGE_TO_SURFACE<br />

Type o7: *CONTACT_TIED_SHELL_EDGE_TO_SURFACE_OFFSET<br />

These are the same as types 6 and o6 except that rotational degrees of freedom are also tied<br />

together, allowing moments to be transferred.<br />

NODES SPOTWELDED TO SURFACE<br />

Type 8: *CONTACT_TIEBREAK_NODES_TO_SURFACE<br />

Slave nodes are tied to the masters until a failure criterion is reached. Thereafter they can slide<br />

on or separate from the masters as in a type 5 contact surface. This type of surface can be used<br />

to represent spot-welded or bolted connections.<br />

Before failure, pinning is achieved using penalty stiffness, not kinematic constraint, so the<br />

warnings applying to tied interfaces do not apply to type 8.<br />

TIEBREAK<br />

Type 9: *CONTACT_TIEBREAK_SURFACE_TO_SURFACE<br />

This is similar to type 8 except that failure is based on stress rather than force at individual nodes.<br />

It can be used to model fracture or rupture of a component where the failure plane is known in<br />

advance, for example bolts in the lid of a transport container.<br />

ONE WAY SLIDING WITH VOIDS<br />

Type 10: *CONTACT_ONE_WAY_SURFACE_TO_SURFACE<br />

Type a10: *CONTACT_AUTOMATIC_ONE_WAY_SURFACE_TO_SURFACE<br />

Type m10: *CONTACT_FORMING_ONE_WAY_SURFACE_TO_SURFACE<br />

These are identical to types 5, a5 and m5 except that the slave surface is defined using segments<br />

(or parts) instead of nodes.<br />
