*BUCKLE step with prescribed displacements

Hi, Juan, Calc_em

Thanks for looking at this. The problem has been puzzling me for some days.

I think Nonlinear analysis has some deeper issue with offset shells. I will pay attention if I find some other examples.
Just in case someone else finds some issues converging offset shells I have been able to solve it just creating three parts and connecting them with tie contact.

Problems suddenly disappear , convergence is then sweet again.

Thanks again for your help and merry Christmas everyone.
