NUM
Contact entity number. This contact entity must have been previously defined with the EDCGEN command. Use EDCLIST to obtain a list of contact entity numbers.
--
Unused field.
VAL1
Penalty scale factor for slave (contact) surface (SFS); default = 1.
VAL2
Penalty scale factor for master (target) surface (SFM); default = 1.
You can use the EDCMORE command to specify two additional
contact parameters (SFS and SFM) for a specific contact definition. These
parameters will apply only to the contact entity number entered on the NUM
field.
Use the EDCLIST command to obtain a list of contact definitions
and their corresponding contact entity numbers. The listing produced by EDCLIST will
include any contact parameters specified with the EDCMORE command.
When you use the EDDC command to delete a contact
definition, any parameters you specified with EDCMORE for
that contact definition will also be deleted. To delete only the parameters
specified by EDCMORE for a given contact definition, use
the command EDCMORE,DELE,NUM
.
Note: When you delete a contact definition with the EDDC command, the contact entity numbers will be renumbered for the remaining contact definitions. Therefore, you should always issue EDCLIST to obtain a current list of contact entity numbers before adding or deleting contact parameters with the EDCMORE command.
The EDCMORE command is also valid in SOLUTION.
