| ⃰Friction coefficient values for contacts
are ignored in the Explore stage, but separation is allowed. |
| ⁑ Stiffness behavior for remote
displacements is handled differently in Explore and Refine modes. In the
Explore stage, Discovery uses a rigid
behavior. However, Discovery uses a flexible
behavior in the Refine stage. |
| ⁂ The Refine stage always uses a displacement
condition. The Explore stage uses a displacement condition if the face is
aligned with the global coordinate system but uses a rigid joint otherwise.
|
| ✣ The Explore stage uses a rigid
formulation of the joint, while the Refine stage uses a deformable formulation
of the joint. |
| ✱ The Refine stage always uses a
frictionless support, while the Explore stage uses a frictionless support if
the face is planar and a rigid joint otherwise. |
| ❊ The Explore stage uses a rigid joint,
while the Refine stage uses a deformable joint. |
