      I've just started to use ACP to simulate some composite structure. When I want to solve the problem in ACP(Post) I always get the message "eXt of material ... is 0 or negative. Check material definition or set global strain limits." and I can't figure out what it means.

      Does someone has the answer for this?

      Thank you!

      Hi,
      Could you please write the complete error message? It is not clear which parameter became 0 or negative.
      Thanks
