Hi,
I keep running into a problem when I try to solve my model on COMSOL 4.3. The geometry is pretty simple, it's a rectangular piece of Polyethylene Naphtalate, with an array of hexagon cuts. The purpose of this study is to see if adding these cuts will affect the yield's strength of the material. The dimensions are as follows: 3mm by 1.5mm, with a thickness of 12.5 um. The forces that I've applied to the material are on opposite edges, applying equal but opposite forces. A third edge is left free, while the fourth edge I've applied a symmetry boundary condition to it. After meshing and clicking on solve, I get the following error:
Failed to find a solution.
The relative error (4.4e+002) is greater than the relative tolerance.
Returned solution is not converged.
I'm not sure what this exactly means, specially for such a simple study. I've attached the file.
Thanks in advance,
Ricardo Aguilar Jr.
