Hi Everybody,

I am simulating contact between two solids. And I want to modify the default pressure-over closure relationship. So for this first I am interested in knowing the default contact stiffness which Abaqus is using for my model. Hence, can somebody please direct me on how to determine default contact stiffness used by Abaqus for each model?
Thanks in advance,

Nik
