Warning in Ansys
Warning in Ansys
(OP)
Hello,
I am analysing a 3-D model of concrete column under axial load. The concrete is modelled by Solid45 Element with William-Warnke for material of the concrete. The solution converges to the true results for small loads (approximately for 20 % of ultimate loads) but for larger loads does not. The warning message is "there are 2 small equation solver pivot terms".
Please help me if you have any idea.
thanx

RE: Warning in Ansys
The concrete is modelled by Solid 65 With William-Warkne Criteria Failure.
The Dimension Of The Column Is (D=152 mm , H= 305 mm) That The DOFs(Dx-Dy-Dz-Rx-Ry-Rz) Of the Bottom Is Constraint.
The solution converges to the true results for small loads (approximately for 20 % of ultimate loads) but for larger loads does not.
The warning message is "there are 2 small equation solver pivot terms".
I Think That Resoan of this warning due to crushing in concrete.
If The Uniaxial Crushing Stress be -1,the warning disappear
but property of crushing disabled,and this property is important for me.
Please help me if you have any idea
Thaks alot
