***WARNING: In element 1200 of instance POWDER-1 the ratio of deformation
speed to wave speed is 0.30479 at increment 11143084. See the
message file for further information.
***ERROR: Excessive distortion of element number 1200 of instance POWDER-1
***ERROR: There is only one excessively distorted element
***ERROR: The ratio of deformation speed to wave speed exceeds 1.0000 in at
least one element. This usually indicates an error with the model

RE: Any ideas for correcting this error message?
Could be any number of things to be honest - best to look at the element in Viewer and try to figure out why it is distorting so badly.
Also, there may be a sudden increase in velocity on the nodes attached to that element that is causing an instability. Could be that the load is being applied too quickly?
