"Zero thickness" error in SOL 600
"Zero thickness" error in SOL 600
(OP)
Hello all,
I am doing a SOL 600 analysis but Nastran gives me an error of "zero thickness" in some elements. Obviously, I checked those elements and they have properly defined their properties so I don't know what can I do.
I've done a lot of linear analysis to that model and all of them have run okey, therefore I suppose that the model is well constituted, where could be the problem?
Thanks in advance.

It appears before the iteration

I am almost sure that it is not problem of the shell elements because I've used the same model with different connector and it worked perfectly with Implicit Nonlinear Analysis.
Could be the bar elements that I am using to transmit the forces the origin of the problem?

Moreover I've redefined all properties and nothing has changed since then, I havo no more ideas so please could anyone help me?
Thanks!
