@Jim Thanks for the reply. I am using ELFORM 13. The different color layer in the model pic specifies different plies. Do you mean to say I use a model with  single solid element  in z-drection as seen in the pic.? The properties that I am using also have Poisson's ratio > 0.5 in matrix dominated direction. I am also not sure if the solver accepts this value.
