Solid/Shell run error

David Flemming Apr 20, 2015 8:45 PM

Hii SolidWorks users,

I'm attempting to run an analysis with a shell attached to a solid. But for some reason, I keep getting this 'not valid' error (see below image).

I checked the contact set and it is set to Bonded, ie with the surface edge and the cylinder face. But it still doesn't work..

Does anyone know what might be causing this problem?

Thanks,

David

David;
Without the model, I think you may have a problem with the force you defined at a vertex. Since your model was simplistic, I have attached a file similar to yours so you can compare to see the difference that is causing yours not to run.
