Dear Andrew, I tested with small (but non-null) pressures and the system indeed converges. If I understand your point correctly, I am essentially having a zero by zero divison when calculating the errors, and that is why the system fails to converge. Is that so? Bests, Lucas On Monday, 4 Sept

I think the problem arises from the fact that the error residual is essentially zero in the absence of loading. There is nothing wrong with the theory, it’s just that we assume loading will / should be applied. I think this is reasonable. Try a small value (positive or negative) for the pressur

Dear all, First, I would like to apologize for post the diff the "wrong direction". I just attached the second version correctly. Also, I think I need to expand in a few things I did try to do already, none with success. First, I tried removing the boundary 6 altogether. Unsurprisingly, this al
