No rating yet Subject: Re: WB convergence problem in nonlinear analysis Author: Carl Mally Date: 2008-04-14 13:30:18>1) When I run the structural part alone, I could get the solution to converged even though the pipe has buckled. I am not using the arc-length method nor the stabilize feature but the solution converges, is there anything wrong with this?<
No this is ok. It just means that you have jumped over the buckling point and reached a stable solution where the pipe has snapped through.
