Hello Pavan,

Always insert a Contact Tool under the Connections folder and Generate Initial Contact Status whenever you have Frictional contact.

It may be that the contact is Open and that is the cause of the failure to converge. Please show the table of Initial Contact Status.

I suggest you first convert the Frictional contact to Bonded contact, turn off Large Deflection and try to solve. Does that work?  If so, turn Large Deflection back on and try to solve. Does that work?

Regards,

Peter
