Yes, Patran can create contact between solids using the same method used to create contact for shells. The only difference is while creating deformable bodies for solids make sure to set the Target Element Type to 3D. Otherwise the procedure for creating contact between solids is the same as that for shells. If you want an example please contact MSC Technical Support via email at mscnastran.support@mscsoftware.com or call 1-800-732-7284.
