HI @radenpm9, I just had a look at your project - looks fine to me. So I guess it was the post-processing: You need to switch to the last time step and then rescale the color bar to see the von mises gradient properly. ![](https://www.simscale.com/forum/uploads/default/original/2X/b/b091a78e3c62f4904c10afe137861958478647ca.png) Hope that helps! Best, David ---

Hi Simscale, even though the simulation was finished, I didnĀ“t get ā€œConvergence plotsā€ in the menu of simulation runs. ![](https://www.simscale.com/forum/uploads/default/original/2X/f/f29a9744495cf497291094756c805d4a9100861a.png) ā€¦ and also menu on the left didnĀ“t show the ā€œSolution fieldsā€ in the Post Processor . ![](https://www.simscale.com/forum/uploads/default/original/2X/e/e976118bb1f4f60286068461fe4515a40c77fc77.png) Should I delete it and start again this simulation (I did it twice)? Besides, I had an error which was reported before. I have been trying to finish these simulations since the last days without any results. It took so much time waiting for the simulation, I had to log out. Sorry, but the connection here is not so good and very slow with interruptions as well. Thanks for your time, Alex ---

Hi @Alexor, make sure you share your project link if you have problems so that the support does not need to ask for it in a seperate post/answer therefore an occurrence of delay in solving your problem(s). Also make sure you have just one workbench open at a time to prevent problems. ![](https://www.simscale.com/forum/uploads/default/original/2X/a/af4a95162cf7cbf43f1b2e3c2326103458ef85db.jpg) ![](https://www.simscale.com/forum/uploads/default/original/2X/5/59f84150d40c52725acae3012b619bd7d6a40bb8.jpg) ---

Good evening @Alexor, just took a quick look at it. You did not mesh: ā€¢ mesh solid\_0\_face\_3 ā€¢mesh solid\_0\_face\_87 ā€¢mesh solid\_0\_face\_88 ā€¢ mesh solid\_0\_face\_89 But I am sure that your issue has nothing to do with the mesh since your project looked perfectly fine to me. ![](https://www.simscale.com/forum/uploads/default/original/2X/7/7a93d34055311db0f0f16e66f5e88a7a6529c6c2.jpg) ![](https://www.simscale.com/forum/uploads/default/original/2X/0/0b9ea8d69a429a0750d36c5fc14e771d3638618a.jpg) As you can see for me it works perfectly fine. If I did not get you please give an explanation. Some quick tips: ā€¢ As mentioned before only one workbench at a time opened ā€¢ Clear cookies of your browser ā€¢ Sometimes refreshing the page or reopening of the project helps If you need more help just let me know. All for one and one for all šŸ˜ƒ Cheers mate. ---

Yeahh, you were right jousefm . It is important to open and work on one workbench at a time. Something I didnĀ“t do. The first two pictures I posted were when I made that mistake. Laterā€¦ when I shared my project link, I had already deleted my first simulation and run all of the simulations without any inconvenient. Appreciate your help and advices mate šŸ˜ƒ !! ---
