** ERROR IN HIERARCHY (PART TO SUBSET ID)

    Hi,

    Please try with the attached file.

    The issue was related with the surface segment created.

    Hi,

    Try running with the engine file attached.

    The model seems like there is no node selected for the imposed displacement load collector. Please recheck/review the loads defined in the model.

    Hi,

    I just used a higher time step value for the run in the modified engine file. 

    Before imposing a time step value always check the current time step in the starter out (_0000.out) file and accordingly assign a time step value and also ensure that the mass added is also within the limit.

    Hi,

    Open the starter out (_0000.out) file in Textpad and find the current time step value.
