Hi for everyone,

I am absolutely new in ANSYS ant in ANSYS workbench, but very want to learn use this software.

So with ANSYS workbench I am trying to model simple problem: contact between two equal 3D plates (H=5cm, W=15cm, L=40cm). Material of these plates can be different, but interesting thing for me is contact.

I know contact tipes (bonded, frictional, no separation, frictionless), o can be solved like contact between two bodies (bodie-to-bodie) by translational contact. But there is any way to add path of contact (TAU versus slip) or somehow to describe contact behaior?

With ANSYS mechanical APDL, I didn't try it yet, because I don't know how.

Can somebody help me solve this problem?

thanks ;)

Sorry for my English language :(
