Hi,

I am doing one 2D contact analysis problem, using the Abaqus manual.
Following the steps, I have defined contact control.

However, I am not able to assign the contact control, as the contact control dialog box is showing inactive. Please see the attached screenshot.

How do I activate it? Could anyone help, please?

Many thanks!

Edit this contact pair definition in analysis step (not Initial one) and it should be possible to assign contact controls.
 
Many thanks!..I could do it now in the analysis step.
