    Hi @along_2006

     

    Can you run NLSTAT with LGDISP?

     

    Goto Control Cards>> PARAM>> LGDISP>> 1 to activate large displacement solution with NLSTAT and refer to NLPARAM in Loadstep>> NLPARAM(LGDISP)

     

    You can add NLOUT for incremental results, FYI :)/emoticons/default_smile.png' srcset='/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x' title=':)' width='20'>

    The operation you said, I have set it, the deformation is still difficult to control. Can you see the model of my attachment? Try to modify and calculate, and then make a judgment
