Hi guys im getting this error while attempting to simulate a compressive test:
"The job input file "Job-3-4400.inp" has been submitted for analysis.
Job Job-3-4400: Analysis Input File Processor completed successfully.
Job Job-3-4400: Abaqus/Explicit Packager completed successfully.
Error in job Job-3-4400: THE ANALYSIS MAY NEED A LARGE NUMBER OF INCREMENTS (MORE THAN 20,000,000), AND IT MAY BE AFFECTED BY ROUND-OFF ERRORS. FOR ACCURACY, RUNNING DOUBLE PRECISION EXECUTABLE IS REQUIRED.
Job Job-3-4400: Abaqus/Explicit aborted due to errors.
Error in job Job-3-4400: Abaqus/Explicit Analysis exited with an error - Please see the status file for possible error messages if the file exists.
Job Job-3-4400 aborted due to errors."
i can solve it by enabling DPE but 20000000 steps is a lot for this simple test! whats wrong here?

Recommended for you

Enable double precision, consider reducing step time and use mass scaling. If you have enough computational power, you should be able to complete this analysis but it might take a while (simulations in Explicit sometimes last for a few days but I don’t think it will be the case here).
