I tried to perform an analysis with over 4 million tetrahedral elements. I got the error below. How can I solve this problem. I am using out-of-core, multiple threads and MUMPS solver.
Thank you very much for your reply and I am sorry for my late message. I did various analyses by changing mesh density and solver type (such as CASI and PARDISO). I noticed that when the analsis contains a lot of elements I get error messages such as 4001, 2007, 2039, 4032 even though I used CASI or PARDISO solver with out-of-core element storage. I checked the out file and saw the error "upper bound on allowed memory exceeded". I have added the screen-shot below. Which memory is referred here? How can I resolve this problem? Should I change my computer? Should I use multiple computers in parallel? And lastly, does Marc has any upper limit for the number of elements to be used in an analysis?
