My elements disappear?
My elements disappear?
(OP)
I am doing multilevel modeling (submodeling), which connect macro model with meso model (rolling process, the inner part of the material is analysed).
The nodes are transferred from macro model to the meso model.
I did macro-level simulation, and I have problem with the latter.
At the beginning of the simulation an error appears:
The distorted elements are shown below:

Why they dissapeared?
The simulation is 2D temp-disp explicit type. The plane strain analysis is applied.
