ABAQUS

Dear all

I urgently need the answer to my question. I am modelling a clapping or contact between two surfaces similar to a crack.

I have used abaqus : 1-tangential : frictionless  2-Hard contact

I wanna know what moelling approach does abaqus use for above situation ?

Does abaqsu use hertzian contac ? bilinear stiffness or what ?

Thank you
