Comments

  1. The first input to define the rigid wall is the coordinates of one point M or a node_ID in case of moving rigid wall.
  2. The next input is the coordinate of a point M1 and possibly a point M2 (in the case of a moving wall, M1 and M2 have the same motion as node_ID).
  3. The slave nodes can be defined as a list by nodes and/or as the nodes that are initially at a distance less than Dsearch from the wall.
  4. The defined nodes must have a non-zero mass.
