Glue Parameters–Local Pair Overrides 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. |
