.. _V1.01.329: **v1.01.329** ERREU12 — CONTACT_INIT validation with cutting =============================================================== **Summary:** This test, which includes only one modeling, verifies that the initial contact (CONTACT_INIT) has been taken into account correctly after cutting the first calculation moment. The principle is to limit the number of iterations of Newton to 2 in order to force the redistribution of the time step. After cutting, we check that the calculation stops due to lack of Newton iterations and not because of a singular matrix. This documentation is deliberately brief.
