Please, use the 'Model Checker' Utility to perform a model check before running your model.

It will show you some of your errors.

This topic covers OptiStruct, but it is the same approach.

Some of your errors might be related to mixed 2d and 3d elements in the same component.

Some of them are related to lack of property or material. Please review your model with the model checker.

Thank You Adriano A. Koga, I have tried model checker as you have stated previously but I am unable to solve the error 'components have more than one element type' shown in the attached image. Even I have tried remeshing my model with quads elements then also I am getting the same error again.

Hi Ashwani Mittal

1. Go to 2D > Elem types and select all your shell elements and update as below image

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

2. Assign card image none to lump mass

After making these 2 changes the analysis is progressing from my end. You can try it
