Error Messages

Model Definition Errors/Warnings

The following errors/warnings arise from incorrectly defined FEMGEN data. The interface will attempt to continue processing the model in order to detect as many such errors as possible.

ERROR: INVALID LOCAL AXIS SYSTEM TYPE (NOT RECT) System_name
ERROR: INVALID LOCAL AXIS SYSTEM ORIGIN (NOT 0,0,0) System_name
ERROR: MISSING MASS FOR PART Part_name
ERROR: MISSING MATERIAL FOR PART Part_name
ERROR: MISSING PROPERTY FOR PART Part_name
ERROR: INVALID PROPERTY FOR PART Part_name
ERROR: INCORRECT ELEMENT VARIANT ON PART Part_name
ERROR: INVALID LOAD DEFINITION Load_name
ERROR: INVALID MATERIAL TYPE FOR MATERIAL Material_name
ERROR: MISSING BEAM PROPERTIES FOR PART Part_name
ERROR: INVALID NODE SEQUENCE NUMBERS FOR LLNL DYNA3D
ERROR: NODE NUMBER OFFSETS MUST NOT BE USED
ERROR: ELEMENT NUMBER OFFSETS MUST NOT BE USED
ERROR: UNABLE TO DETERMINE LOADED FACE FOR LOAD Load_name
ERROR: INVALID PART TYPE FOR CONTACT SURFACE Part_name

WARNING: NO NODES FOUND FOR LOAD Load_name
WARNING: MULTIPLE LOAD CURVE DEFINITION FOR LOADCASE Integer
WARNING: NO NODES IN TIME HISTORY BLOCK Set_name
WARNING: SC, LM, CS ARE NOT SUPPORTED FOR LOAD Load_name
WARNING: LOCAL SYSTEM NOT SUPPORTED FOR LOAD Load_name
WARNING: SOME LOADED FACES ARE INVALID FOR LOAD Load_name
WARNING: CANNOT GET LOAD CURVE TYPE FROM NAME OF TIME CURVE TimeCurve_name

WARNING: SOURCE PRESSURE HAS TO BE APPLIED TO PLANAR SURFACES
PRESSURE NOT CONSIDERED AS SOURCE OF A PRESSURE WAVE FOR LOAD Load_name
WARNING: PRESSURE ARRIVAL TIMES COULD NOT BE CALCULATED FOR LOAD Load_name
WARNING: PRESSURE ARRIVAL TIMES CANNOT BE OUTPUT IN LARGE FORMAT
WARNING: PRESSURE ARRIVAL TIMES COULD NOT BE CALCULATED, CHECH MATERIAL DATA

File Errors

The following errors relate to the interface's use of files. They are often an indication that mid-way through the translation process a file has either been closed, deleted, or locked by some external source or via a hardware fault. For the external material and results files an incorrectly defined environment variable can cause the interface to search for files in the wrong area. These errors will cause the interface to terminate immediately.

ERROR: WRITE ERROR ON TEMPORARY INPUT FILE femdyn.tmp
ERROR: WRITE ERROR ON INPUT FILE Integer
ERROR: OPENING EXTERNAL LOAD CURVE FILE File_name
ERROR: READING EXTERNAL LOAD CURVE FILE File_name
ERROR: OPENING EXTERNAL MATERIAL FILE File_name
ERROR: READING EXTERNAL MATERIAL FILE File_name

System Overflow Errors

The following errors can occur with very large models (40,000+ Nodes/Elements). Under such circumstances please consult your local FEMGV distributor in order to increase the interface limits. The interface will terminate immediately.
