Help algorithm failed at iteration

Post by Oreste »

I have added constraints to the model so that all nodes move in the plan but the analysis still fails.
Sorry you could explain in detail the discourse about the editing of the materials so that there are zero?

Thanks

use linear elastic materials in place of the ones you currently use to see if it's the materials .. most times it's the fact that there are not enough constraints in the model.
