Jean-Paul, The boundary ID output from the four different calculations are as follows (before any boundary IDs are set to 6): 1) 3D, no imported mesh: equal numbers for boundary IDs 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. This calculation converges to a solution (as expected). 2) 2D, no imported mesh: equal num

Dear James, To me, the most likely point of failure here relates to the application of boundary conditions. It might be that one of the constrained boundaries is not traction free, and so the problem is not free of rigid body modes. Can you please confirm that you apply the same numbering schem

To Whom It May Concern, I am learning deal.ii to work on problems in solid mechanics. In the interest of computational efficiency, I plan to run most problems in 2D (plane stress assumption). Since the interesting problems I am concerned about require a non-trivial mesh, I learned how to use Gm
