Hi Team,

I've been exploring various features in HyperWorks, but I've hit a snag. I've encountered a situation where shell elements are intersecting or penetrating 3D elements. An example of this can be seen in the rubber ring tutorial available at the HyperWorks Solver documentation (refer to: Rubber Ring Tutorial in HyperWorks Solver Help).

Could this be a rendering issue within HyperWorks, and is there a way to manage this effectively? Any guidance on how to prevent this from happening would be greatly appreciated.
