In the solver section you have to have Apply Contact BCs = Logical True to apply contact conditions In the boundary conditions you have to define the contact conditions Boundary Condition 2 Name = "leading" Target Boundaries(1) = 8 Force 1 = Variable Time Real 0.0 100 0.08 100 0.0801 0 0.4...

The only way I could get it to make a difference was

Body Force 1
Name = "Divergence Damping"
Pressure = Variable Coordinate 1, Coordinate 2
Real MATC "20e-6 * 10^((20 * log(sqrt(tx(0)^2 + tx(1)^2))/log(10) + 11) / 20)"
End

Boundary Condition 1 Target Boundaries(3) = 1 2 3 Variable Potential Real Procedure "timestep" "timestep" End doesn't do anything so the module never gets called it should be something like Boundary Condition 1 Target Boundaries(3) = 1 2 3 Potential = Variable Time Real Procedure...

No it needs to be in the working directory with the sif and mesh files.

I would use the free text input field. You can either put the whole material in the text file or just the curve.

I use salome, and in this case I mesh the end with quads and extrude it into solids. If you create groups of the quads, they extrude into the different bodies.

Mesh Quality looks like an improvement on the original project_v2

Only if you compile your own version of the solver
