Identifying 'bad' element?
Identifying 'bad' element?
(OP)
Hi all,
I have an analysis running which seems to be getting stuck on 1 particular element. The output indicates "1 U-P ELEMENTS DO NOT SATISFY THE VOLUMETRIC COMPATIBILITY"
I am not so much concerned about the message because I encounter it all the time with hyperelastics. However, is there a way to identify which element it is? I could then go back and check it or change the material to a linear model for just one element.
Thanks

Use the NLDIAG to set the criteria, after solving use the NLDPOST to get these elements in a component.
