Hi everyone,

have a problem with the influence of friction when using linear contact.

Model: Solid cube on a rigid shell surface; small accelerations applied in all directions

Problem: solid drift off the plate; (should not because of friction)

Maybe some settings are wrong at penalty factors, can someone explain me these settings?
-penalty factor units
-normal factor
-tangential factor
