RE: Too many attempts error

Hi Bhairavi,
 
I think it may be due to any of the following reasons:
 
1) The load applied may be too large or too small in comparison with the size 
of the body that you are modeling. Absence of Load-Size compatibility. Also, 
check for the consistency of units.
 
2)  The max. no of increments may be too less. Increase the max. no of 
increments in the STEP module. Also, try to reduce the initial increment size.
 
3) Coarser mesh....try to fine mesh it.
 
There can be other reasons too.....if the above does not work, somebody else 
may be able to help you out.
 
Good luck.

Hai everybody,
   When I tried simulating a program,it excites with
error message 'Too many attempts made for this
increment'.Any body has any idea what this means.
Thanks
