We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi 

This appears to be a meshing issue. Do you encounter the failure immediately upon clicking the solve button?

Here are a couple of things to check:

  1. Geometry Errors: Please verify that there are no errors present in your geometry.
  2. Mesh Generation Settings: Try generating the mesh without using the patch-independent and virtual topology options. Use the global settings instead and see if the issue persists.



Best Regards,
Sampat
