problem related with full integration

Submitted by yihit on

Hi,

I am new to ABAQUS and have met a problem in input file. If I set the element type to be CPE4R, the input file works perfectly. However, CPE4R has only one integration point, which is not enough for my problem. When I define the elment to be CPE4 in the input file and set section control to be hourglass, the computation is terminated with error in input file. I don't konw what's the problem here. Could anyone help me with the problem?

Any information is appreciated.
