convergence problem in interface delamination modeling in ansys

Submitted by saeedspace on

hi every body..

im trying to  model interface delamination in ansys. i use inter204 or 205 for interface element.the problem is that as the stress in interface riches the yield value, the solution doesnt converge.

 

i tried to increase  the number of substeps or decrease the size of element, but the problem still exists.
