I have specified a compression only support on a portion of a thin model
in Workbench 8.1. Why won't the solution converge?


For this application the default Fkn value of 1 is too high.
You can reduce this with the undocumented variable 'compression kn'
For this particular model, setting 'compression kn' to .01 in the Variable Manager resulted in
convergence in around 15 iterations.
