Hello All,
I'm currently working on an orthogonal cutting simulation and I've been experiencing the error that elements have zero or negative mass in addition to excessively distorted elements. I've confirmed that the Johnson Cook model parameters that I'm using are correct and I have damage evolution turned on. The cutting tool is carbide and I'm cutting a 1045 steel workpiece. ALE adaptive meshing is enabled as well. Thanks in advance!
