In the prestress settings for the modal you can choose to use the &#8220;True Status&#8221; from the static &#8211; which would take in account sliding, sticking, etc. You could choose &#8220;Force Sticking&#8221; which would force any contact regions that were sliding to become to a sticking status for the modal. Lastly, you can specify &#8220;Force Bonded&#8221;, by doing this, it will bond all the contact regions that were sliding or sticking.
