Dear all,
I am trying to connect two plates using the custom connection. When I ran Plaxis 3d for a very simple model I encountered the following error "Picos solver: incorrect solution, slow convergence. [Error code: 204]." I would be grateful if someone can guide me on how I can figure out this issue.
Thanks,
Dear Ali Kashani,
Maybe the problem is in the interface elements. Please, see short reel about Custom connections.Also you may be interested in the Create custom connection with selection API.
Thank you so much Rushan! What should I do if I want to make the custom connection between three plates (at the shared edges of three plates)?
Hi,
What if you:
1. use pardiso instead? That often helps.
2. Does your plates intersect?
3. Are you running with too many - or too few elements?
Dear Ali,
If you still have problems please submit a service request.
Then, one of our support engineers can help you in detail: https://apps.bentley.com/srmanager/ProductSupport
Then you need to make sure that every part has a custom connection so that all plates are well defined.
Otherwise, by default, the plates are rigidly connected and that can affect the other parts.
