Hi,everyone

Recently I find that when I continue to run my case(eg, I calculated my case for 20s last time, now I modified the ebdTime to be 40,so I continue running), the calculation diverge. I try several cases, they all fail like this. This phenomenon never happened before. Does anyone meet this problem?

By the way, my case is a wave tank that generate stable linear wave, so after initial time, the run time information for every time step should looks likes no-change.
