thanks prost,
this is true. and when I do the analyses separately .. both of them run fine. but while performing FSI (combining both together) it fails. I have also considered structural disp. BCs for fluid for FSI which otherwise I would never consider if I was to do CFD all alone. but still...
thanks cbrn,
makes sense. I must check all my boundary conditions. the thing is .. if I run the cfd analysis separatey ... it runs well. but in combination with solid .. it doesn't. I'm considering U & V both the BCs for fluid in FSI analysis because thats what is shown in the example in ansys...
Hi all,
I'm doing a fluid structure interaction problem using Ansys 9.0. I'm getting a strange error, "The inversion subroutine was supplied with a singular matrix". what does that mean ??? i tried modifying almost everything. in the output window the last message is ... "applying boundary...

I tried ... nothing happened. I had 8 node 185 brick elements and used contact wizard to set up contact. included initial penetration, checked penalty approach. friction 0.2, penalty stiffness 0.2 (factor). but still it ignored the penetration. is there anything other than that ???
Thanks
Hello Mech151,
I'm doing kinda similar thing and my interference or initial penetration was completely ignored by the software. I was analysing 0.98 ID bore & 1.00 OD pin assembly, and it gave me zero stresses after such a long time of calculation. I'm using Ansys 9.0 Multiphysics. Is it ok...
Hi all,
I'm trying to analyze an interefrence model in Ansys 9.0 Multiphysics. I used contact wizard, checked "include initial penetration". my geometry is 0.98 ID bore and 1.00 OD pin assembly imported from Pro/E. It takes almost 20-25 min. for analysis and at the end the dtresses are zero...
