Hello,

I have this error in one FEM: "A load transfer error has occurred.  A load could not be applied to small or defeatured entity.  You may select the offending object and/or geometry via RMB on this warning in the Messages window.  Please see the Troubleshooting section of the Help System for more information."

I don't know what could happen because this model worked months ago. Could it be a version issue?

Thank you

Hi 
It could be a version issue. There might be a chance that Some improvements have been made in the mesh section which is why you are encountering this issue. 
Are you able to generate the mesh successfully?
you can right-click on the error message and check the offending object or problematic geometry in the model. you can apply the local control mesh there to remove the defeature part in the mesh. 

There are any small surfaces that may have been defeatured during meshing, there may not be any nodes attached to it which can prompt this error.


Best Regards,

Hi,

Thank you for your response. 

Yes, I can generate de mesh succesfully. When I see the error, the model does not point to any problematic geometry or node. I have some joints representing screws, I don't know if it can cause problems with the change of version.

Best,

Cova

I checked it yesterday, I tried it and it did not work in my model. 

I am trying another estrategy avoiding the neccesity of modeling the screws. Thank you for your help.

Hi again,

Although not using joints for representing the screws, the model fails with the same error. I don't know how to solve it. 

Can you help me, please? thank you

Hi 
Please attach a screenshot of the mesh model so we can investigate.
