Hi can someone help me out with this?

Now, I remeshed the geometry with triangular elements to get a total number of panels as 20363 and out of this 0.04% of the elements seem to fail hence, I also enabled the ignore modelling rules and the diffraction analysis runs without any errors. But I get a lot of errors in the hydrodynamic response analysis

I have currently reduced the number of connected bodies to three bodies to simplify the problem. But I still get a lot of errors as shown in the figure below.

I am not quite sure on why these errors pop up. Is it because aqwa cannot simulate floating structures with a small draft? or am I missing something here?

Do I have scale up the model?

So can you please help me with resolving these errors?

Thanks!
