<P> </P>
<P>I am also getting something similar, however it is referring to many elements with</P>
<P> a "BC fail" and then gives the E INVALID BC FOUND. I have attached the case </P>
<P>and output log for referrence. </P>
<P> </P>
<P>I checked the elements that it is referring to and the BC's are good, so I'm not sure </P>
<P>why it tells me this. I looked in fast3d.f and also couldn't figure out what "ierr and ierrmx" </P>
<P>refer to. Could explain what this error means or what it is checking for? Thanks </P>
<P>for any help! </P>
<P> </P>
