Hi,

I'm new to COMSOL and would like to model a sphere in elastic material surrounding by a layer in viscoelastic material, that is pushed inside a deformable cavity. To link my sphere with the layer, what is the best to do ? A rigid connector ? What is the difference with an attachment ?
Another question is to model the contact between the sphere and the cavity. Do I have to create a contact pair ?
Thanks in advance,
