Two nonlinear bodies

      Hello I consider the introduction of a steel tooth into another steel surface. Do I need to use non-linear properties for both bodies? I compiled and used johnson cook models for both bodies, but is this correct? Maybe one body should have only non-linear properties?

      your material model is corret. you may want to use nonliner with some failure cirtieria (strain based) and consider the either of the part to be rigid to solve the model faster.

      two bodies that interact with each other can be non-linear materials at the same time? for example both be with johnson cook in one calculation

      yes, they can be flexible at same time.
      Cheers, Ram
