Torsion of a beam

Hi,

I would like to understand stress distribution of a twisted beam. One side boundary of a beam will be twisted by 360 deg (image is attached to better understand sample geometry).

My approach was simple: made a box geometry, put materials properties, set fixed constraint (one side of the beam), applied boundary load (on the other side of the beam), created mesh, and computed. However, I encountered an error message (image attached).

Could you help me what I need to do more to do the simulation?

Thank you for your help.
Yoon
