The Contact section provides commands for defining interactions between different components in your assembly.



Contact Detection
Identifies contacting surfaces and creates bonded connections between them.
See Defining Surface-Based Contact or Bonded Contact by Detecting Contact.


Surface-based Contact
Defines structural bonds for user-specified surface pairs.
See Defining Surface-Based Contact or Bonded Contact by Selecting Surfaces.


Show Disconnected Bodies
Highlights bodies that do not have any connections.
See Locating Disconnected Bodies.


Show Contacting Bodies
Highlights regions in a model where bodies come into contact but do not intersect or overlap.
See Locating Contacting Bodies.


Show Intersecting Bodies
Highlights regions in a model where bodies intersect or overlap.
See Locating Intersecting Bodies.
