I am trying to run a single frame restart. My model has contact 17x elements. The program aborts when I try to run the restart. Why?


17x contact elements do not support single-frame restart. This was discovered after 8.1 release, and has since been documented in the Basic Analysis Procedures Guide (Sect. 3.10.1.1 in the 9.0 version; Sect. 3.9.1.1 in the 10.0 version) and in the Contact Technology Guide (Section 3.12 in both 9.0 and 10.0 versions). You will have to use multi-frame restart when your model contains 17x contact elements.
