Division by zero

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,

I am trying to model a spring-in effect for epoxy. When using a parametric sweep to evaluate 8 to 24 plies (iterations of 4) of material under temperatures ranging from 100 to 160, I get a "division by zero" error. If I go into my parametric node under job configurations in my study and disable the option "stop at error", my sweep will compute, but will only solve for 4 and 8 plies, and not anything more than that. So, the division by zero error happens only with values higher than 8 plies. In my global definitions, I have a value of 8 for my variable "plies." I've tried to increase this to 24, as this seems like a probable cause, but it doesn't work. I've checked to see if any of my initial values are causing this, but as far as I can tell, they aren't. I'm not sure what else to do.
