Hi,

I am trying to run a crash simulation and the above error termination occurs. It says retractor convergence failure at time 101.3ms. I am using LS-DYNA R13 double precision solver to run the job. Can anyone please help resolve the issue? the following are the restractor parameters used: 

TDEL: 0.5

PULL: 5.0

LFED: 12.0

loading and unloading curves are defined and are based on coupon tests conducted.

Hi Abraham, 

This error can be triggered if the material type and/or load curve used in pull-in and pull-out for retractor may have a problem. Please check and make sure there is no unrealistic values set.

Cheers,Ram
