In ABAQUS/Explicit, we could choose General Contact interaction algorithm. In this interaction, there is a part named "contact domain". In this part, one named " all with self". and the other one named "selected with pairs".
My model is liking this, made up of one substrate and a particle. The particle is going to impact on the substrate.
What is the difference between the two choices?
A: I choose selected with pairs, and then I assign substrate-substrate and particle-particle and particle and substrate.
B: I choose " all with self " directly.
Thanks.
