Reply To: Transient Structural Analysis of a rope with retaining ring and hanging ring

Hi Marco,

As per the error message, it looks like you are facing an element distortion issue and you terminated it. Try to run completely by requesting Newton-Raphson residuals and element violations. Can you share how load is applied for the condition when it fails? Also, how did you model the rope?

Thanks,
