Reason

Users may set up problems where multiple (maybe many) contact pairs are needed. It can be tedious to create one block for each possible contact pair.

Design

User will provide a vector of boundary pairs to define mechanical contact. In principle, the same contact-related parameters will be used for all contact pairs.

Impact

More user-friendly contact action

Tasks

  • Node face contact
  • Mortar contact

This capability should work for any node on face combination. The contact parameters
for the action will the same for all the contact pairs defined by the user in the
form of a vector. A simple example is added for demonstration and initial testing purposes.

Multiple contact pairs in thermal and mechanical contact actions (#18056
b143f03 
)

* Add capability for defining multiple contact pairs in the contact action. Refs. #18022

This capability should work for any node on face combination. The contact parameters
for the action will the same for all the contact pairs defined by the user in the
form of a vector. A simple example is added for demonstration and initial testing purposest push.

* Add missing requirement from test

* Address Wen's comments on mechanical contact action

* Add capability of defining multiple contact pairs in thermal action

* Address Wen's comments II

* Address Ben's comment on documentation

Well, unfortunately, I was excited to try the recently-merged code out on a model I'm working with, and it didn't work. I got an error like this:

*** ERROR ***
The following parameter error occurred in the object "nodal_area_object_0", of type "NodalArea".

boundary:
    the following side set ids do not exist on the mesh: 1002

    MOOSE distinguishes between "node sets" and "side sets" depending on whether
    you are using "Nodal" or "Integrated" BCs respectively. Node sets corresponding
    to your side sets are constructed for you by default.

    Try setting "Mesh/construct_side_list_from_node_list=true" if you see this error.
    Note: If you are running with adaptivity you should prefer using side sets.

I'm not sure where it's getting that side set 1002. I'm enforcing contact on sides 1 and 3 and 10 and 11. I have sidesets 1000 and 1001. I can share the model with you, @recuero

Did not get that issue

  [one]
    primary = "1 3 3"
    secondary = "3 10 11"
    model = frictionless
    formulation = penalty
    normalize_penalty = true
    penalty = 1e12
    tangential_tolerance = 1.0e-3
    normal_smoothing_distance = 0.1

Doh! I wasn't actually using a version of MOOSE that had your fix merged in. Works fine when I do that!
