Hi,

Thank you for the file

By referencing CNTNLSUB SID in the next nonlinear subcase, whats actually happening?  I am not clear whats being continued to the next subcase from previous nonlinear case ?

kathic,

 

In path dependent problems where you want to carry to next load, CNTNLSUB will be useful.

Hi @Prakash Pagadala,

I am not clear, 

Are loads & boundary conditions continued ?

strain & stress carried over to the next case ?

 

Please tell the physical significance

 

Thank you in advance
