What does DAMASK runtime interrupt with the error "max number of cut back exceeded, terminating" mean, and how do I fix this problem?
Jcak Sun Hi, cut back refers to the decrease in the time step in the hope to have a converged solution. However, in this case, even after trying to reduce the time steps multiple times, the simulations failed to converge.
It is difficult to comment without looking at the files and what exactly you are doing.
Maybe try with decreased time step from the beginning ? or change your material parameters.
Hope this helps

Sharan Roongta Thank you for your advice, I want to study the mechanical behavior only in the case of self-hardening, so set h_sl-sl in material.yaml to [1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] and increase the value of h_0_sl-sl. I want to try to solve the problem by decreasing the time step you mentioned, but I don't know how to set to decrease the time step, I want to know how to set the time step.
Jcak Sun Maximum number of cutbacks can be increased by editing "maxCutBack" entry in numerics.yaml
Jcak Sun Time step can be controlled in load.yaml file.
you have two variables , t -> time , N -> increments.
t/N is the time step. So you can adjust (increase) your N.
Also what Achal H. P. suggested, you can increase maxCutBack number in the numerics.yaml file.
None of the above guarantees convergence, if the underlying constitutive behavior is the problem
