I want to connect tet meshed bodies together using glue elements for modal and static analysis. Can the free face of the elements in each region be use for the connection or only entire elements?

    The easiest way to define contacts is the automatic contact creation "ACG" in Nastran based on properties.
    e.g.
    ...
    cend
    BCONTACT = Auto
    begin bulk
    BCAUTOP
    ,CTYPE,PGLUE       $ Activate Permanent Glued Contact
    ,PropSet,100       $ Use SET1,100 for Property List, creates BCPROP
    ,DISTANCE,0.1      $ Distance Tolerance between c-bodies
    SET1,100,1 THRU 125 $ List of properties
