Ansys WorkBench Error Message

Ansys WorkBench Error Message

Ansys WorkBench Error Message

(OP)
I receive the following during solution, "An error occured while starting the Ansys solver module". Does anybody know how to resolve this issue? Thanks

RE: Ansys WorkBench Error Message

Have you applied any loads? Are the boundary conditions set? What type of analysis? Etc. etc...

(OP)
All loads, materials and BC have been applied. Its a static structural nonlinear ductile analysis.

RE: Ansys WorkBench Error Message

It could be an endless number of things. The information you've given is less than adequate and so no definitive answer can be given. Go through each option step-by-step in the WB tree, removing each option (or redefining with a known working condition) until the error message disappears.

Drej: I apologize for the small amount of info. What would information would help you? Does the ansys solver module have to be toggled "on"?

RE: Ansys WorkBench Error Message

Start from the begining and supply information on everything you've done to create the model. Doing this will probably lead to YOU finding the error anyway.
