      Contact force can be tracked by inserting Result Tracker in WB LS-DYNA. Highlight “Solution Information” and right click to insert “Contact Force”. Under the details of “Contact Force”, you can either specify contact region as Body Interaction or contact pairs such as bonded contact. If you want the total contact force acting on a body, you also need to insert “Body Contact Tracker” scoped to the body.
