Hi,
I have tried meshing a model in PLAXIS 3D and the error is as follows
Meshing failed with the following error:Fatal: Could not generate mesh.Warning: 351 EMR warnings have been detected. The 15 most severe are listed, the remaining 336 are not shown.Warning: # 1/203 of small 3D proximity: detected size 4.00e-02; this is 4.58e+01 times smaller than minimum targeted element size.

I have tried refining the mesh at the specified surfaces and volumes. I have also tried refining the coarseness of the mesh and still the error remains same.
Kindly suggest any other alternate ways or any solution.
