We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi, onw way is to use SPR and MPR in the ONE_WAY_SURFACE_TO_SURFACE_TIEBREAK card and use S=INTFOR in the run expression you can get the contact gap contours in intfor, check the binout for RCFORC for tie area and z_force curve as indicater when the tie got break.

cheers, RamÂ
