How S-ALE and SPG-FEM are fluid-solid coupling and contact issues

  I really use the combination of S-ALE and SPG-FEM to do blast simulation, so I would like to ask you the following two questions:
  1, How should I define the contact between different SPG PART? I only found the keyword CONTACT_SPG.
  2, How should the fluid-solid coupling between S-ALE and SPG, FEM? I use the keyword *ALE_COUPLING_NODAL_PENALTY to build SPG, FEM in a PART LIST to couple with S-ALE, but there is a case of coupling not working.
  I hope I can get help from everyone, thanks a lot!

  Hi,
  Unfortunately this question is beyond the scope for ANSYS employees to answer on a public forum, so hopefully other users can chime in.
