When I'm performing a static analysis, one element differs from the others in the result (big discontinuity in the stress field). Any idea where it can come from?

Thanx

Is your mesh continuous? Is there any sort of point loading or contact occuring there?

My mesh is ok and I don't have any point loading. In fact this error occurs in the last increment of my step. (999/1000)

Maybe I should increase the number of increments...

Thank for your answer
