ERROR: Some boundary particle was excluded.
Hi there my simulation fails to continue due to an error:
*** ERROR: Some boundary particle was excluded. ***
TimeStep: 0.336181 (Nstep: 6029)
Total boundary: 37 (fixed=0 moving=0 floating=37)
Excluded for: position=37 rhop=0 velocity=0
Some boundary particle exceeded the +Z limit (top limit) of the simulation domain.
*** Exception (JSphCpuSingle::AbortBoundOut)
Text: Fixed, moving or floating particles were excluded. Check VTK file Error_BoundaryOut.vtk with excluded particles.
Could you please tell me a bit about this error?

Let us read through the error when step at a time. First line is:
ERROR: Some boundary particle was excluded.
So now we known that something is up with boundary particles. Then:
TimeStep: 0.336181 (Nstep: 6029)
We know at which time step, and afterwards:
Total boundary: 37 (fixed=0 moving=0 floating=37)
Excluded for: position=37 rhop=0 velocity=0
We are told that it is a floating object, with mk = 37 and that some of its particles was excluded due to position.
And then the final line:
Some boundary particle exceeded the +Z limit (top limit) of the simulation domain.
You are then finally told that in your simulation a floating object exceeded your Z-domain limit. To change this look in XML and edit these lines:
For example add "+100%" to z posmax. If you use FreeCAD, then look under the different options until you find Z-value option.
Kind regards
Thanks a lot.
