Non-Linear analysis TABLES1 H3D File

Hello,

I´m running an implicit non-linear quasi-static analysis (large displacement):

As first analysis set-up I run the model without TABLES1 (MATS1) properties. My model ran successfully and created all binary files (H3D, res).

When I add tables1 to my analysis, status-window states my model has converged but it did not create h3d, res files, just some scratch files "*.rs".

I just added the tables1 and modified mats1 properties. Why can´t I see h3d files? I have read scratch files are generated when there is a problem with the analysis.

Thanks!

you can check the *.out file for any warning or error message.

Also, if you are using the option with TABLES1, check that the curve is always increasing on tension value.

I hope this is helpful.

Hello,

There are some **INFORMATION messages in the .OUT file:

#1579

for material id = 1 referenced from property id = 1.
MATS1 referred to from MID3 will be ignored - plasticity is
supported for membrane and bending deformation, but not for transverse shear.

#4736

#4739

I´m using the MAT1..MATS1..TABLES1 for quad elements (PSHELL).

I have warning messages but just related mesh quality, I have the same parameters and slide contact for the analysis without TABLES1 and it runs successfully (creating binary files).

TABLES1 is always increasing on tension value.
