Reply To: Element excessive distortion – Ansys APDL

[dlooman]

In my experience there is no way to solve through an element distortion error.  Even extreme methods like solve,,,,noch don't work.  It would be nice if the program could just delete the element and keep going, but it can't.  To avoid rerunning from the beginnning, restart points could be created so that you could restart from just before the element distortion error occurs with some modification to the rate of loading.
