/INTER/TYPE1
Block Format Keyword ALE boundary nodes can be tied to Lagrangian surface to make fluid structure interaction. This way Lagrangian surface is acting as a sliding wall boundary condition.

Comments
- This interface is not compatible when the Lagrangian master surface is in a rigid body.
- The Lagrangian surface normals do not need to be oriented in a specific direction.
- A small gap (positive or negative) can exist between the ALE slave surface nodes and the Lagrangian master the surface.
