chrono::fea::ChContactTriangleXYZROT Class Reference

Description

Contact element of triangular type - version for triangles where the nodes are of ChNodeFEAxyzrot type.

NOTE! if in future we could have ChNodeFEAxyzrot inherited from ChNodeFEAxyz, probably this class would be unnecessary! (Now, it is a bit redundant with ChContactTriangleXYZ) This can be used to 'tessellate' a generic surface like the outer of tetrahedral meshes
