Odd SIF result point coordinate in XFEM analysis

Odd SIF result point coordinate in XFEM analysis

(OP)
Hi all!

My 3D solid model contain's a crack represented by elipse (3D/shell/planar). When calculating SIF the coordinates of the last XFEM SIF result point is outside 3D model. The SIF value at that point is calculated in millions.
Did anyone had a similar problem? I attached the photo of my (sub)model to get a clearer picture.

Regards,
