Hi,

Could someone give me some hint why I get the error message like in the subject??

I am using Abaqus explicit 6.4 for an analysis. The deformable body was meshed in TrueGrid, and the above mentioned error was issued in the .sta file. The nodes that were listed were on the surface of the body, but nothing else special (there are many other nodes on the surface as well.) I have no idea where and how this error would occur. Thanks a lot.

Hi,

I found the possible reason myself -- the mesh was poorly created in Truegrid. I used another approach in TrueGrid for the mesh, and now no such problem. Thanks anyways.
