Then it was exported it to Ansys via IGES format. I created connections (frictional for bolt-body and nut-body and bonded for bolt-nut). Then i applied bolt pretension for bolt bodies and started to solve the task. And i have&nbsp;abrupt interruption of solving. In Solver Output i have 2 errors:&nbsp;<span style=\"background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: PFSquareSansPro-Regular, Arial;\">&#8220;No pretension elements have been created.&nbsp; Please make sure that your&nbsp;input satisfies the pretension section definition requirements&#8221;&nbsp;and &#8220;THE PRETENSION LOAD WAS NOT ABLE TO BE APPLIED.&nbsp;MAKE SURE THE LOAD&nbsp;WAS NOT APPLIED TO A HOLE AND THAT THE LOAD IS NOT APPLIED MORE THAN ONCE PER SURFACE&#8221;. I have tried to find the mistake, but i cant. So, what can be reason of it?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: PFSquareSansPro-Regular, Arial;\">Image of model&nbsp;with applied pretensions&nbsp;is attached.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: PFSquareSansPro-Regular, Arial;\">P.S.
