Hi, I am trying to do an explicit dynamic simulation in Ansys Workbench for "Orthogonal Metal Cutting". I have modeled the specimen as two separate bodies (master and slave) and provided a bonded contact between them. Cutting tool is considered as a rigid body. Master body is given as fixed constraint and cutting tool as displacement constraints in the direction of cutting. Cutting speed of tool is 60m/min and step end time (in analysis setting) is 2.54e-3 sec.

I am trying to do the analysis providing these condition but error is coming “Problem terminated.....energy error too large". Please advice if i m missing anything and how to overcome this. Thanks in advance...!!
