+====== Contact Interactions ======
+Contact elements are generated on the mesh using ''Interactions'' described below, in the same way as volume elements.
+===== Rigid-Defo contact =====
+Interaction between a rigid body (die), meshed or not, and a deformable meshed entity.

+===== Defo-Defo contact =====
+Interaction between two different deformable meshed entities. By default, contact is double in two steps. First, the nodes from the second body are considered as slaves of the first body, then, nodes from the first are considered as slaves of the second.

+===== Rigid-Defo contact driven with a force =====
+Interaction between a rigid body (die) and a deformable meshed entity. When this contact interaction is instantiated, the rigid body gets a node to impose force monitoring. Consequently, the body has rigid body modes in translation.
