Glue Parameters–Global Pair dialog box (Multiphysics)

Modeling Object
Name	Sets the name of the modeling object.
Label	Sets a unique numerical identifier for the modeling object.
Properties
Glue Formulation	Determines the type of glue connection.Select Weld-Like Connection to use the weld-like glue algorithm.Select Normal and Tangential Springs to use the spring-like glue algorithm.This option corresponds to the GLUETYPE field in the BGPARM bulk data entry.
Penalty Factor Units	Controls how Simcenter Nastran calculates glue element stiffness.This option corresponds to the PENTYP field in the BGPARM bulk data entry.
Penalty Factor	Available when Glue Formulation is set to Weld-Like Connection.Lets you specify the penalty factor for the weld-like algorithm.This option corresponds to the PENGLUE field in the BGPARM bulk data entry.
Penalty Normal Direction	Available when Glue Formulation is set to Normal and Tangential Springs.Specifies the penalty factor for the normal direction.This option corresponds to the PENN field in the BGPARM bulk data entry.
Penalty Tangential Direction	Available when Glue Formulation is set to Normal and Tangential Springs.Specifies the penalty factor for the transverse direction.This option corresponds to the PENNT field in the BGPARM bulk data entry.
Integration Order	Determines the number of glue points for a single element face on the source region.This option corresponds to the INTORD field in the BGPARM bulk data entry.
Source Region Mesh	Controls whether Simcenter Nastran refines the mesh during the solution.This option corresponds to the REFINE field in the BGPARM bulk data entry.
Export a Preview Bulk Data File	Writes out a bulk data file that contains the following dummy entries:Shell element entries for face locations.PLOTEL entries for edge locations.GRID, property, and material bulk data entries.When you import the preview file, the software uses these dummy entities to display the source and target locations for contact and glue conditions.For more information, see Previewing contact and glue element locations (Simcenter Nastran).This option corresponds to the PREVIEW field in the BGPARM bulk data entries
