Laminate error (In radius)

Hello,

I am trying to perform a carbon fiber monocoque analysis. I have checked the element normal and also the material orientation and are correct.

However, when I make the laminate, I have the following problem in the radius:

Anybody could help me, please?

Thank you

Hi,

Can you elaborate on what exactly the outcome you are expecting. If possible can you share the model file?

Hello,

Firs of all, I have modified the length of the set to include more than the radius, to not stop in the limit. As you can see in the picture below:

Anyway, The specific problem is that I want to introduce different thickness laminates in the same body. I have different sets to make it. But in this limit, with the radius, the laminate is wrong. In real mode, there is a chamfer in this place and the internal radius does'nt exist.

I have tried to share with you the model. Altough the size is smaller than the maximum allowed, it give me an error
