Insert contact tool, contact pressure, find max and find node numbers that have the max value

How can I insert a contact tool and contact pressure result, find the maximum value and the node numbers that have this max value?

Adapt the following code:

# Create contact tool and contact pressure
model = ExtAPI.DataModel.Project.Model
solution = model.Analyses[0].Solution
contact_tool = solution.AddContactTool()
contact_pressure = contact_tool.AddPressure()

contact_pressure.EvaluateAllResults()
contact_pressure_max = contact_pressure.Maximum


# Extract data from plot
plot_data = contact_pressure.PlotData
nodes = plot_data ['Node']
result_value = plot_data ['Values']


# Handle unit conversion
import units
currentLengthUnit=ExtAPI.DataModel.CurrentUnitFromQuantityName('Stress')
scale_factor=units.ConvertUnit(1.,currentLengthUnit,result_value.Unit)


for index in range(len(nodes)):
  if result_value[index] == contact_pressure_max.Value*scale_factor:
    print(nodes[index])
