Hi,

How To manage Load Cases in Static Stress with Nonlinear? Please advise, how create, how to set up, what shall be took into account?

Like all MES ,the setup is very important

You are going to pass a lot of time looking the converge of this model

suggestions do not put two loads over a same node-usually the model do not converge. is you need two pressure do the mat and place the respective load

do check runs

if you model do not converge (1.000000 e00) after the first steps you are having trouble if you start to converge but is reducing the steps you have to try to fix a constant time step , that works for me.
