Causes of convergence problems


The most common cause of convergence problem in nonlinear simulations is inadequate FE modeling.

Examples of inadequate FE modeling include:
  • Defining conflicting constraints between boundary conditions, contact conditions, and /or multi point constraints
  • Not adequately constraining the model-allowing rigid body motions
  • Having incomplete (or inadequate) material data
  • Using an inappropriate element for the problem
Another common cause of convergence problems is that the physical system is very unstable, making it very difficult to find an equilibrium solution.

Examples include:
  • Buckling of thin-walled, cylindrical shell structure
  • Snap-through with contact changes
  • Compression of highly confined, incompressible materials (rubber)
  • Development of local instabilities occur
In these cases it is important that the correct element type and analysis techniques be used; otherwise, it can be very difficult to obtain a solution.

  1. As an ICU nurse with an amazing 38years old career, I know what a medical miracle is. For no reason, I have never liked herbal medicines until I witnessed a confirmed HIV positive patient test result reversed to HIV negative after many tests which all still came back negative. Many professionals gave different suggestions to what has happened and why it was possible or impossible but to me, it's nothing more than a medical miracle. I scrutinized him and found out he has been cured with herbal medicine which a physician have prepared for him. Then I was a GENITAL HERPES sufferer which was the main reason I have remained single and my biggest secret that has made me understand life in the best way I should. Through this abovementioned person who had been cured, I contacted this physician who cured my genital herpes with herbal medicine and has also cured a psoriasis patient with herbal medicine through me, and in all these tribulations and recovery phases, which were experienced none of us have ever complained of any after effect.
    The good news is that this same physician is available on:
