The simulation fails or runs out of memory

Solve time and peak memory scale primarily with the number of tetrahedral elements (How NoviPath meshes your part, Computational time and memory). Raise the Min and Max Edge Factors for a coarser mesh, or widen the range between them, then re-run Meshing. NoviPath’s suggested factors are chosen so that the part solves comfortably on a computer with 8 GB of RAM; the clamp example in Example: mesh refinement on a thin-walled clamp shows how quickly memory grows as the range is tightened.
