Hi Dennis, thanks much for your input. I get your point that LS-Dyna is more powerfull when not used from Ansys workbench. I must say the intergration is not great yet, but since I have good experience with Ansys mechanical, using LS-Dyna is now availble to me with a manageble amount of training. Hopefully the integration will soon be better and more complete, because I can work well with the mechanical interface. Switching to LSPP seems not like a quick and easy step over I imagine?

At the moment I am using indeed body interactions for bodies that can colide with each other. I use frictional with following settings:

Problem is that parts move trough each other like this. See issue below where hook goes trough other part. Could this happen because mesh has initital penetraions between the parts? 

 

 Any tips to improve are helpfull! And nice holidays to you!
