  • minimum_projection_angle40Parameter to control which angle (in degrees) is admissible for the creation of mortar segments. If set to a value close to zero, very oblique projections are allowed, which can result in mortar segments solving physics not meaningfully, and overprojection of primary nodes onto the mortar segment mesh in extreme cases. This parameter is mostly intended for mortar mesh debugging purposes in two dimensions.
