hello,

I tried to set up a non linear static analysis (non linear material MAT1) but I get the error

*** ERROR # 4068 ***

TYPE = 'NLELAST' is only supported in NLGEOM, IMPDYN and EXPDYN subcases.

I don't understand the meaning of this error. Can anyone give me a hint ?

thank you !

    to add details on the problem,

    hello

     

    here is additional information on my case :

     

    I set up the control card of my loadcase at 'Non linear quasi static' as describe in the Os-1365 tutorial : 'NLSTAT analysis of solid blocks in contact'

     

    I get the error : *** ERROR # 4068 *** TYPE = 'NLELAST' is only supported in NLGEOM, IMPDYN and EXPDYN 

     

    I set the control card of my loadstep to 'Geom non-linear (impl static)' and then it is working.

     

    Is it possible to run a 'non linear quasi static analysis' as describe in the tutorial ?

     

    kind regards

    Hi Ushin,

     

    NLELAST option in MATS1 is currently not supported with the current version of HyperWorks. This will be available in coming version of HyperWorks.
