FEMAP edge-surface glued connection 1
- Thread starter jhp1981
- Start date
are the elements associated with the geometry ? not sure how to verify ? Maybe plot (as a dummy group) elements using geometry ?
forget that ... I think you're gluing 3D elements of a 2D edge (so my questions don't apply)
another day in paradise, or is paradise one day closer ?

Is it because the 2 plates are parallel to each other?
Yes.
Here is how edge contact face pair detection works.
In your case faces are perpendicular and solver can not detect contact because green face and red "pseudo face" should be mostly parallel or at last it must be possible to project red face on green and vice versa.
