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 Miguel,

Thanks for posting your query here. I checked the images you had shared and it seems that it might be singularity. One component of the bending load is acting inplane which is compressing the plane.

If the stress changes with mesh and even location may change then it represents that stress is not converged. At singularity you cannot have a converged stress.
