I have been working in ANSYS workbench and using a university license server for my ANSYS license. My problem is that recently I have been running into issues where after creating the solver input file step ANSYS will shut down and won't solve my model. My sales rep has told me that my ANSYS license should have access to the SOLID186 solver. After updating the server to R2022 and restarting the server the issue was solved temporarily however this issue happened again (After ANSYS caused my computer to BSOD) and I am wondering if there's anything to solve this issue. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The following is my client error. <\/strong><\/p>\n

*********** Nodes for the whole assembly ***********<\/p>\n

 *********** Elements for Body 1 "SYS-9Solid" ***********<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
