Nonlinear analysis iteration graph display

[Struct71]

Hi everyone,

I am doing a non-linear analysis with contacts, non-linear elasticity and large deflection in multiple steps.

Upon solution I am getting a graph with "cumulative iteration number" on the X axis, convergence norm on the Y axis and a few lines jumping up and down. However, after a few iterations the graph stops working, only to resume on the next loadstep.

Why does it stop? Where can I control the settings of this graph?

Thanks,

Hi, I have two suggestions if you use win32 bit.
Firstly: check the compatibility of your windows with Ansys (right click on Ansys product Launcher- properties- compatibility) and change the compatibility to the highest version of windows. (At my computer is win 2000!)

Secondly: use the /gst,on command.

Hope that helps

That /gst,on worked! Thanks!
