No "Contact" option for Solid Mechanics Physics

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I am working on testing a solid mechanics simulation and have been following along with the guide. Everything is working out fine, creating contact pairs, using Form Assembly, etc. but when the guide says to add a "contact" condition for the pairs in the physics there is no "contact" option. I'm not sure if options have changed or if I am missing something.

Check under Licensed and Used Products. Your GUI looks like you don't have the license for the Structural Mechanics Module, but just the basic solid mechanics functionality that comes with COMSOL Multiphysics itself.

Henrick,

That looks like the issue. Thanks for your help with this.
