Hi to everyone,

I'm using a submodel analysis where dynamic explicit is used in globalmodel.

When I run submodel I get an error:

***ERROR: The driven node 71221 for part instance PART-1-1 does not belong to 
any element from the specified global element set ELE_PLINER. Check 
coordinates, submodel exterior tolerance parameters, and the global 
element set definition

In submodel I create elset ele_pliner in already deformated configuration which is the starting step of explicit analysis in the global model.

It seems that in the submodel I need to specify all nodes and elements in the indeformated configuration (increment 0 of first step of explicit analysis) .

For exemple if in the globalmodel I have step 1,step 2 and step 3, in the submodel I cannot start from step 2 (deformated state of globalmodel) because all nodes and elements specified in submodel must be the same of all nodes and elelments of submodel elset specified in global model in indeformated configuration.

Is it correct or not?

Thanks to all for support
