Error #2110

 *** ERROR # 2110 ***

 The dependent d.o.f. is constrained by grid or spc data.

 RBE2 element id =        715

         grid id =         10

       component =          1.

 

After doing some work with optistruct, I encounter this error. The only constrained nodes are the base of my model. How do I locate the RBE2 that is causing problems?

Hi,

 

RBE2 with ID 715 has dependent nodes constrained with SPCs which is not valid. Instead constraint the independent node.

How do I locate these nodes?

Since he gave you element try Tool -> Find -> Elem (by ID) -> 715

 

That should give you an element with (it sounds like) one end connected to the independent node and the other to the dependent node. At that point you can use Tool -> Delete -> Load and select the SPC at the dependent side of the element and hopefully that takes care of it.

using 13.0 Optistruct,doesn't appear to be a find tool.
