Help selecting element- hyperelastic, adaptive meshing
Help selecting element- hyperelastic, adaptive meshing
(OP)
I need some help getting an element to work in my analysis. I am using a marlow hyperelastic material and am attempting to use ALE also. I can't seem to get any elements to work. I first attempted a brick element - C3D8R, and the error said that hyperelastic and hourglass control are not compatible. C3D8I error was that fully integrated elements won't work. I then tried tet - C3D4, but that one didn't work (can't remember error), and C3D10M didn't work - fully integrated elements won't work.
How do I either turn off hourglass control, or get an element to actually work? Thanks for the help.
