Highlights
New contact browser support with Auto contact creation with improved performance and auto contact detecting capabilities. Solver conversion from Abaqus to OptiStruct enhanced to support nonlinear analysis cards. Nonlinear analysis cards support.
The Contact browser consists of three panes; the first pane displays the component, contact surface, property and set and the second pane displays the contacts content and the third pane displays the Entity Editor. For more information, please refer to the Contact browser online documentation.
