    One or more contact regions may not be in initial contact.

    check error file in the simulation folder (attached). Having trouble ID'ing the problem spots through these errors and through the solution information as it doesn't tell you which contacts are causing the...

    One or more contact regions may not be in initial contact.

    I am applying a pressure in two spots along two beams near the bottom. I am applying 6 specific loads on beams/bodies throughout the structure. In the picture above, I am not applying the load anywhere near those bodies that are causing me errors. When I check pinball regions, it appears as...

    One or more contact regions may not be in initial contact.

    Unfortunately I am not able to upload it due to company policy. I have it set on all bonded contacts. How would one go about lowering contact stiffness? (I designed the model myself and they are definitely in contact with one another.

    One or more contact regions may not be in initial contact.

    I am currently using ANSYS Workbench to perform a Static Structural Analysis on a complex 3d model. I uploaded an assembly from Pro/E for the geometry of this simulation. I have read previous posts about this problem and have had no luck. I set my forces, supports, and pressures, and when I...
