Conformal Contact Simulation between a rigid and flexible body in ADAMS?

Hi,
 
How is it possible to model a conformal contact between two body in contact? Flexible/flexible bodies or flexible/rigid bodies.

  • HI,
    there is no right or wrong, neither a single way of doing things in Adams, 1st you may want to play with the different contact methods. eg; curve2curve on either end, cylinder2cylinder, solid2solid... and chose the one that gives you the best compromise for speed accuracy. Second you may want to use non-linear bushes instead and see how these deviate vs test results....
