    Thanks for sharing files.I see you have not defined NLPARM card. Just define NLPARM card with Ninc & max iteraion with default setting. Set loadstep to NLSTAT & run analysis.

    Attached is the updated file with updated Rforce.

    Thanks a lot for the help Rahul. It is now a little better to proceed with my analysis. However, I have one more doubt. For large displacement what parameters do I have to play with when using NLPARM card? I mean that I want to rotate the shaft by almost 180 degrees. I tried giving high rotation velocity but that doesn't help.
