When I expand just the balloon (simulated as a cylinder) inside the artery there appears no convergence issue (image 1). However when the stent is also introduced, the solution fails to converge without reasoning in the solver output (image 2). Are there any recommendations? Feel free to ask me any questions regarding my model.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6032193\/uploads\/attachments\/73ac39bb-bcfc-4dbf-903d-ab8c013df041\/b957fc43-b2d8-4966-96a7-abf100f8d16b_balloon.jpg?width=690&amp;upscale=false\" alt=\"\" width=\"321\" height=\"142\"><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6032193\/uploads\/attachments\/73ac39bb-bcfc-4dbf-903d-ab8c013df041\/e4b7aced-9bbb-4eb8-be29-abf100f870ba_stent.jpg?width=690&amp;upscale=false\" alt=\"\" width=\"321\" height=\"143\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-45879","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_old_topic_id":["18061"],"_bbp_old_topic_author_name_id":["Anonymous"],"_bbp_old_is_topic_anonymous_id":["false"],"_bbp_old_closed_status_id":["publish"],"_bbp_author_ip":[null],"_bbp_old_sticky_status_id":["normal"],"_bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["385"],"_bbp_subscription":["249163"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["45879"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["22","240","174965"],"_bbp_voice_count":["3"],"_bbp_reply_count":["10"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["122004"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["122004"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2020-07-21 12:09:46"]},"test":"stat"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/45879","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/45879\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=45879"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
