Convergence test in ANSYS

Submitted by gohelvivek on

Hi, i tried to solve a simple plane stress cantilever problem using ansys but it did not converged to the exact value and it goes beyond the exact value for stress and diplacment domain as i go on making finer mesh. the problem is as shown below, i tried 4 noded solid plane82 and 8 noded plane 182 element type. Can anybody tell me the procedure for convergence test in ansys

BTOL command

Submitted by a. gaur on

 i m facing  problem in multiphysics while glue two volumes. the error says that ' Boolean operation failed , try adjusting BTOL to some fraction of the minimum keypoint distance. model size (current problem) 1.908711e+002, current BTOL setting 1.0e-2, minimum KPT distance 4.334169e-006'. please tell me what BTOL should i set to glue the two volumes. what is the trick of setting the BTOL.
