Also, can you explain the differences between bonded contact, shared topology and merging them into one body? I have been trying out these different set ups and they all yielded different deformation and stress results. In my case, my geometry is one big piece of structural steel welded together (50+ layers of weld) and can hence be assumed as one body/part, which one out of the above should I be using?
